  Charles Dickens

  Charles Dickens was a writer and social critic who created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity.
  DOWN WITH THE TIDE: A VERY dark night it was, and bitter cold; the east wind blowing bleak, and bringing with it stinging particles from marsh, and moor, and fen from the Great Desert and Old Egypt, may be. Some of the component parts of the sharp-edged vapour that came flying up the Thames at London might be mummy-dust, dry atoms from the Temple at Jerusalem, camels' foot-prints, crocodiles' hatching-places, loosened grains of expression from the visages of blunt-nosed sphynxes, waifs and strays from caravans of turbaned merchants, vegetation from jungles, frozen snow from the Himalayas. O! It was very, very dark upon the Thames, and it was bitter, bitter cold.

  In this chapter, the narrative shifts from Jonathan Harker’s isolated terror to the warm yet increasingly uneasy exchanges between Mina Murray and her dear friend Lucy Westenra. Through their letters, we glimpse everyday Victorian life — seaside holidays, budding romances, and hopeful plans for the future. But beneath the pleasant tone lies a quiet tension, as subtle hints foreshadow the dark forces already beginning to stir beyond their awareness. 
  Mina writes with affection and curiosity, unaware of Jonathan’s growing peril in Transylvania. Lucy responds with confessions of love and uncertainty, revealing her own emotional crossroads. Meanwhile, newspaper clippings and family correspondence widen the world of Dracula, introducing mysterious events that will later intertwine with the unfolding horror. 
  This is Chapter 5 of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne — part of a complete chapter-by-chapter audiobook series that brings the Gothic classic to life with haunting atmosphere, rich characterization, and cinematic storytelling. 
  Experience the calm before the storm, the subtle dread, and the delicate human moments that make the coming darkness all the more terrifying.
