Number of pages:
20
ABSTRACT:
20 pages in length. Bram Stoker's Dracula, Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray and Flann O'Brien's At Swim-Two-Birds appear to be about as diverse as any three stories can be; however, while there is the admitted variance between and among these tales, there is also a common denominator that binds three seemingly unrelated themes. The struggle for acceptance in Stoker's Dracula, the obsessive nature of self-love in Wilde's Dorian Gray and the ability to laugh at society in O'Brien's Birds brings to light how three distinctive stories are able to come together under the guise of human conflict and successfully share the same thematic point. At the same time, however, all three stories possess their own unique contribution to the literary world, in that each one stands apart from the others in specific ways. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
