Correlates with the book Edgar Allan Poe Collection of Stories ISBN: 9780812504552 from Macmillan Publishing
Creator of the modern detective story, innovative architect of the horror genre, and a poet of extraordinary musicality, Edgar Allan Poe remains one of America’s most popular and influential writers. His tales and poems brim with psychological depth, almost painful intensity, and unexpected—and surprisingly modern—flashes of dark humor and irony. This anthology offers an exceptionally generous selection of Poe’s short stories. It includes his famed masterpieces, such as "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and "The Purloined Letter." Also included are some of Poe’s most beloved poems such as "Annabel Lee," nightmare phantasmagorias such as "The Raven," and his grand experiment in translating sound into words, "The Bells."
