The Man is a romantic novel by Bram Stoker, the author of Dracula, written in 1905. It has also been published under the title The Gates of Life.

The Man is a novel from the Victorian era of British history and culture. The Victorian Era was the period during the reign of Queen Victoria, from her coronation on 20 June 1837 until her death on 22 January 1901. The Victorian era is known for its long period of peace, prosperity, and national pride for the British Empire.

In The Man, the renowned author of Dracula serves you a rich Gothic romance meal.

This tale brings the mystery and intrigue that delights readers of Dracula into the realm of romance, and will disappoint neither Stoker admirers nor hardcore readers of the romantic genre.

We meet lovely teenager Stephen (her father wanted a boy...) and Harold, approaching manhood, at the outset. We're to find out about their lives from their births to adulthood. They are beautifully drawn characters, almost too perfect each, physically and in terms of integrity and strength.

Stephen is given some male characteristics due to the wishes of her father and her being his only child. Harold is a thoughtful and physically superior fellow and becomes The Man of the title. They come to be raised together as trusted intimates, siblings in all but blood. They make errors which alter both of their lives and badly affect the rather adult-like turn their feelings for one another take. Stoker's descriptive skills that are so vibrant in Dracula show up here too, descriptions of thought processes and feelings in his characters, of setting and mood for his story.
