Pager Turners Book Club - July

graphic shapes, open book

Join us for our book club geared towards readers of fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure!

Our discussion this month will be on Dracula by Bram Stoker on Monday, July 1, at the Oakland Library from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Please register at the Oakland Library or contact Andrew Miller at andrew@relib.net for more information.


When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a series of horrific discoveries about his client. Soon afterwards, various bizarre incidents unfold in England: an apparently unmanned ship is wrecked off the coast of Whitby; a young woman discovers strange puncture marks on her neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the 'Master' and his imminent arrival.

In Dracula, Bram Stoker created one of the great masterpieces of the horror genre, brilliantly evoking a nightmare world of vampires and vampire hunters and also illuminating the dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.
