The Jewel of Seven Stars: An Edwardian Gothic Tale of Egyptian Mummy Horror, Occult Resurrection, and Archaeological Suspense - Couverture souple
Synopsis
The Jewel of Seven Stars is a late Gothic romance of Egyptology, occult experiment, and imperial unease. Narrated by the young barrister Malcolm Ross, it follows the attempt to revive Queen Tera through the mysterious plans of Abel Trelawny and the uncanny resemblance of his daughter Margaret. Stoker's prose combines melodramatic suspense, documentary detail, and scientific speculation, placing ancient ritual beside modern technology. Published in 1903, the novel belongs to the fin-de-siècle fascination with degeneration, mesmerism, archaeology, and the unstable boundary between knowledge and sacrilege. Bram Stoker, the Irish novelist and long-serving manager of Henry Irving's Lyceum Theatre, brought to fiction a dramatist's instinct for spectacle and revelation. After Dracula, he remained drawn to thresholds: life and death, reason and superstition, modern London and older powers. Contemporary Egyptomania, museum culture, and debates over gendered authority likely sharpened his imagination here. This edition will reward readers who value Gothic fiction beyond the vampire myth. Its atmosphere is slower, stranger, and more ceremonial than Dracula, but its questions feel equally provocative: what does conquest call discovery, and what price attends the desire to master the dead? For students and general readers alike, it is an essential Stoker.
