Edgar Allan Poe

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Author, poet, and literary critic, Edgar Allan Poe is credited with pioneering the short story genre, inventing detective fiction, and contributing to the development of science fiction. However, Poe is best known for his works of the macabre, including such infamous titles as The Raven, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Murders in the Rue Morgue, Lenore, and The Fall of the House of Usher. Part of the American Romantic Movement, Poe was one of the first writers to make his living exclusively through his writing, working for literary journals and becoming known as a literary critic. His works have been widely adapted in film. Edgar Allan Poe died of a mysterious illness in 1849 at the age of 40.

5.0 out of 5 stars a perfect Alfred Hitchcock ending
Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2016
Verified Purchase
In volume 3 of the collected works of Poe we find his novel The Narrative of A. Gordon Pym, Ligeia, Morella, A Tale of the Ragged Mountains, The Spectacles, King Pest and Three Sundays in a Week. In the first work the subject matter was for me quite disturbing and the novel ends abruptly. I had to research the book on the internet to find if I was missing the last of it and no, it was meant to be that way, a perfect Alfred Hitchcock ending. I still found the read entertaining and enjoyed it. As with most of Poe's work in general, the focus on the majority of additional stories are the macabre except for The Spectacles (which I found rather amusing and had a moral to the story, vanity) and Three Sundays in a Week.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great poems!

Who doesn't love Poe! I don't like to write too much in book reviews because I feel that in order to adequately write a review, I would have to give away information that would be key to plot. I don't like to be the person to give away spoilers. Therefore my book reviews are always very short and only say a few things in order to tell you, book reviews are much to subjective and I never read a book review before I read a book. I read a book based on what the book is about which I don't read a review to get. If you want more information, buy the book and read it. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Writer, A Must-have for Anyone Who Loves Beautiful Use of the English Language
Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2014

Once you read anything of Poe's you are almost sure to love his writing, whether it be short stories or alliterative poetry, the use of the English language is impeccable! Poe is America's most famous and loved poet, very prolific, though he died at a relatively young age. Listening to Poe is even better than reading it!

E.A. Poe is my absolutely favorite author, I love when I find new sources of his work and look forward to finding a poem or a short story that i may not have read or that I forgot since it has been so long, I would recommend everyone read this book if you are a Poe fan.

I quite enjoyed several of the pieces in this volume, though on occasion the individual works might better be presented in a different sequencing; certain works that are too similar appear in succession from time to time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delighted to have the set!
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2013

Edgar Allan Poe started a great genre, and I am honored to own his collected works. Some of the pieces are still readable and enjoyable, but his style is about 160 years old now! Some are tough for me to get through though. Overall, I love it.

Ci sono dei piccoli errori di allineamento del testo, credo a causa di conversione?
Comunque nel complesso, un'ottima raccolta di uno dei miei autori preferiti.
