One of the most original writers, Edgar Allan Poe, shaped the development of both the detective story and science-fiction genres. Some of his poems remain among the most popular in American literature, and Poe's tales of the macabre still thrill readers of all ages. Here, in a small-format illustrated collection, are familiar favourites like THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, THE TELL-TALE HEART, THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM, THE RAVEN, THE BLACK CAT and more. These are matched with newly commissioned illustrations that wonderfully complement Poe's dark oeuvre. A perfect book for new readers of Poe, or for dedicated fans looking for the classics in a new illustrated edition.
