Autor Aurora Thorneen Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 aug 2025
This anthology invites you to explore the laments of ancient vampires, whose sorrowful verses reveal the agony and ecstasy of immortal existence. Each poem is a dark jewel, weaving tales of lovers bound by the crimson threads of fate. As you turn each page, you'll be drawn deeper into a world where passion and predation intertwine, and the macabre elegance of the vampire's life is laid bare in all its haunting beauty.
Featuring works from celebrated poets such as Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Christabel and John Keats' La Belle Dame sans Merci, this collection captures the essence of gothic horror and romantic yearning. You'll also encounter the chilling verses of Lord Byron and Edgar Allen Poe, whose words echo like whispers from the shadowy corners of the night.
Vampires & the Shadow World is the perfect companion for those enchanted by the dark, the mysterious, and the eternal.

Step into the shadowy world of vampires
This anthology explores the haunting and evocative lament of the vampire. Emerging from gothic tradition, the vampire is often more than a monstrous figure - they are a symbol of forbidden love, eternal longing, inner torment, and the tension between life and death. Writers were drawn to the vampire's seductive and tragic nature, using it to reflect human fears, passions, and the darker side of the soul. Works such as Lord Byron's 'The Giaour' and Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Christabel established the vampire as a protagonist, blending horror with beauty, and death with desire and the supernatural.
Vampires & the Shadow World is a gateway into an eternal realm where love and death are inseparable, and where the thirst for blood mirrors a deeper thirst for meaning and belonging.
