The Blood of the Vampire is a Gothic novel, often compared to Bram Stoker's Dracula and Le Fanu's Camilla. Harriet is a vampire who kills accidentally. She enters a European convent and tries to integrate into society, Victorian and strait-laced. The novel deals with eugenics, race and class and has been praised for its different view of vampires, as suffering from a medical ailment rather than a supernatural phenomenon. - Summary by Lynne T
