La antología definitiva de los cuentos de Edgar Allan Poe, tan extraordinarios hoy como en su primera publicación, en una preciosa edición con tapa dura
Edgar Allan Poe liberó las terribles imágenes que atesora el subconsciente para dejarlas deambular entre sus páginas. Abanderado de la novela gótica y precursor del relato detectivesco y de la ciencia ficción, pergeñó historias que llevan el suspense y el desasosiego hasta una perfección nunca alcanzada y quizá nunca alcanzable de nuevo. Cuentos extraordinarios reúne los más celebrados de esos textos, incluidas piezas que han hecho historia como «El gato negro», «La carta robada», «El hundimiento de la Casa de Usher» o «Los asesinatos de la rue Morgue».
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The complete anthology of Edgar Allan Poe’s stories, as extraordinary today as when they were first published, in a beautiful hardcover edition.
From the greedy world, hungry for materialism, Poe has thrown himself into dreams. Smothered by the American atmosphere, he wrote at the head of Eureka: “I offer this book at those who have put their faith in dreams as in the only realities!” Indeed, it was an admirable protest. The author, who, in The Colloquium of Monos and Una, releases torrents on his contempt and disgust on democracy, progress, and civilization, is the same who—to remove credulity, and delight the idleness of his people—energetically posited human sovereignty and ingeniously crafted ducks most flattering for the pride of modern man.
