Product Description

 
Edgar Allan Poe was one of the most original writers in the history of American letters, a genius who was tragically misunderstood in his lifetime. He was a seminal figure in the development of science fiction and the detective story, and exerted a great influence on Dostoyevsky, Arthur Conan Doyle, Jules Verne, and Charles Baudelaire, who championed him long before Poe was appreciated in his own country. Baudelaire's enthusiasm brought Poe a wide audience in Europe, and his writing came to have enormous importance for modern French literature. This edition includes his most well-known works--"The Raven," "The Pit and the Pendulum," "Annabel Lee," "The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Murders in the Rue Morgue"--as well as less-familiar stories, poems, and essays.

Poe(my favorite writer) was multi-faceted genius

Date of Review:  Jun 5, 2000
Review: Depressed, obsessed, unlucky in love, an alcoholic, and a harsh critic of others work, Edgar Allen Poe(1809-1849) was a genius of a writer. And it is perhaps these very elements that made him so. The sad facts in Poe's life, such as love lost, are...

Review: ?Never shall I forget the sensations of awe, horror and admiration for which I gazed about me? -Edgar Allen Poe

The Demons That Dwell Within

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 1999
Review: I feel that Edgar Allan Poe is probably, if not, one of the best poets/writers that have ever walked the face of this earth. He has his own style and that style would be originality. I feel that most people that would sit down and read his work...

Professional Reviews

  Wilson, Edmund: "No one understood better than Poe that, in fiction and in poetry both, it is not what you say that counts, but what you make the reader feel (He always italicizes the word 'effect'); no one understood better than Poe that the deepest psychological truth may be rendered through phantasmagoria."
