Set in 1890, the narrative follows Arthur Severn, an Englishman who inherits wealth and land in Ireland, prompting him to explore the west of the country. As Bram Stoker's debut full-length novel, it intertwines romance, adventure, and Irish folk tradition while addressing themes of identity, gender, ethnic stereotypes, and imperialism. This work showcases Stoker's early literary prowess and his ability to delve into complex societal issues long before his more famous creation, Dracula.
