The Enduring Master of the Macabre
Edgar Allan Poe, born in Boston, Massachusetts on January 19, 1809, died October 7, 1849. What is it that makes an author famous? I don't mean famous in the sense a news article reports that "Jack Greylea's novels sold 15 million copies last year," but in the sense that he is thought of as being profound, and seminal. That he is quoted, and scholars analyse his works, and he is looked upon as ...

Nine Great Tales by the Master of the Macabre
America was a young country; its age was measured in decades. America had few established colleges and had produced few writers, artists, and musicians. It is ironic that Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), living in poverty and suffering from alcohol and opium abuse, would be one of America's greatest writers, and one of the key creators of two genre of fiction - the deductive mystery and the horror ...

Rathbone rides again.
Basil Rathbone was born to play Sherlock Holmes (in the films of the stories written by Conan Doyle, not the other spurious stuff) and to read the works of Edgar Allan Poe. My vinyl recordings were worn out long years ago. This set is more than I could have hoped for. Now in my 73rd year, these performances carry me back to a time well before my own... magic, indeed. For his part, Vincent Price ...

Edgar Allan Poe

Prestwick House, Inc., 2006

This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic™ includes a glossary and reader's notes to help the modern reader contend with Poe's allusions and complicated vocabulary. Edgar Allan Poe—his name conjures up thoughts of hearts beating long after their owners are dead, of disease and plague amid wealth, of love that extends beyond the grave, and of black ravens who utter only one word. The richness of Poe's writing, however, includes ...

Signet Classics, 2006

Give In Again to the Master Spellbinder
Did you "get" Edgar Allan Poe the first time you read him as a kid? In sixth grade I found "The Cask of Amontillado" mystifying but mesmerizing---but went straight on to read "The Black Cat," "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Masque of the Red Death," and "The Fall of the House of Usher" in an unforgettable fever. Might Poe (1809-49) be the first author to base a career on Obsession? Monsieur Dupin, ...

Fantastic novel if you want to learn SAT words or you love Poe
Kaplan has created a few books that help with the development of learning SAT vocabulary. This book, which has many of the well-known Edgar Allan Poe stories, does likewise, defining over seven hundred vocabulary words on the opposite page or in the glossary. The neat aspect of this book is that it not only defines the various difficult words on the opposite page, but also puts the words in bold ...

A Manifested Dream
This book is the manifestation of the dream of former U.S. Poet Laureate Joseph Brodsky when he said, "Poetry must be available to the public in far greater volume than it is." Brodsky believed that poetry books should be distributed free of charge in many places, such as supermarkets and factories. He also had the idea that an anthology of poetry should be, "found in every hotel room in the ...

Edgar Allan Poe, Christopher Aruffo

Acoustic Learning, Inc., 2007

A great find!
I recently purchased this audiobook to use with my eighth grade students. The stories, all recorded by Christopher Aruffo, are fantastic. His voice helped breathe life into Poe's work and not only allowed my students to follow along with the readings, but also aided them in maintaining a high level of engagement and interest. Middle school students generally have a tough time working with Poe ...

Edgar Allan Poe

Penguin Classics, 2006

The essential Poe
This volume contains the essential Poe, the stories and poems for which he is most well- known. Like all American schoolchildren I had to read Poe when I was quite young. And I remember how his tales did not provide the kind of pleasure and insight I had found in other literature. "The Gold Bug" confounded me , and "The Tell- Tale Heart" frightened me, and the truth is even in adult years I ...

Edgar Allan Poe

W. W. Norton, 2004

A generous selection of Poe's works and a full picture of his interests and achievments? For 16 bucks? Oh, man!
If you're looking for a "complete" Poe, you have two sensible choices, the first being Thomas Ollive Mabbott's 3 volume edition (richly annotated, and each of the works introduced with an account covering composition, publication, aesthetic aims and critical consensus), and the second the delightful and portable Library of America volume. I put "complete" in quotes because even these miss Poe's ...
