A review by brandy777
Vlad by Carlos Fuentes

3.0

Reads beautifully in Spanish. An interesting take on the classic Dracula tale retold in modern Mexican culture . Fuentes was able to give color to the narrator by embedding him with a fear that was essential for the victims of Vlad( aka Dracula or Vlad the impaler,or Vlad ||| -as the story was nice enough to inform me with)and tell a short but gripping story of how a man centuries into the future has basically no chance against a horror he always perceived as folklore.
