Description
"Through this unique compilation the reader will discover the infinite wealth of Poe's imagination and experience the pleasure derived from reading his works. Although his tales of horror and suspense are perhaps better known, an appreciation of the author's work is incomplete without familiarity with his stories of humor and satire and his detective and science fiction works. Written nearly a century and a half ago these works - mostly without any specified setting - continue to transcend time and place and will compel and delight readers for generations to come." -- Alix Perry in Foreword
Published 1990.
