  • "Presents a selection of critical writings, short fiction, and poetry by American author Edgar Allan Poe, including the title story in which a visitor to a gloomy mansion finds a childhood friend dying under the spell of a family curse."
  • "As unquestioned master of the "grotesque", early 19th century writer Edgar Allan Poe is fully represented in this classic collection originally published under the title Selected Writings. David Galloway's introduction reveals Poe not only as a complex personality and one of America's most exotic writers, but also as an individual who engaged in an astonishing variety of interests."
  • ""This selection of Poe's critical writings, short fiction and poetry demonstrates his intense interest in aesthetic issues, and the astonishing power and imagination with which he probed the darkest corners of the human mind. 'The Fall of the House of Usher' describes the final hours of a family tormented by tragedy and the legacy of the past. In 'The Tell-Tale Heart', a murderer's insane delusions threaten to betray him, while stories such as 'The Pit and the Pendulum' and 'The Cask of Amontillado' explore extreme states of decadence, fear and hate. These works display Poe's startling ability to build suspense with almost nightmarish intensity."
