The cover design is simple but striking: bold red lettering standing out against a yellow cover. Yellow was synonymous with the more adventurous and transgressive elements of the Victorian fin de siècle. It was the colour used for the jackets of disreputable French novels. Dorian Gray in Oscar Wilde’s novel The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890) is seduced and poisoned by the contents of a yellow book (usually taken as being À rebours by the French novelist Joris Karl Huysmans). The quarterly periodical The Yellow Book, published from 1894 to 1897, with its distinctive illustrations by Aubrey Beardsley became the definitive embodiment of the transgressive spirit of the age. By giving Dracula a yellow cover the publishers were deliberately aligning the novel with this more experimental, and for many rather disreputable, form of literature.
