As I mentioned before, I'm listening to Steve's videos from last year's Dracula read-aloud to accompany my own rereading of Dracula.
In this video, Steve mentions that the line about women and the apple is proof that Bram Stoker is a misogynist. I'd been thinking the same thing, actually. There have been a number of lines so far in this book about how women are weak, and don't deserve men, et cetera. But it's always dangerous associating the narrator's view with the author's view.
I also agree with Steve that it was a great ending to the chapter.
