Description:
I had been passing
alone, on horseback, through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at
length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the
melancholy House of Usher.
At the request of his
good friend Roderick Usher, a visitor travels to the House of Usher where
Roderick and his sister Madeline live. From the time the traveler first steps
foot onto the Usher property, a mysterious and foreboding presence fills the
air. Almost as if the house itself is alive.
Born in 1809, Edgar
Allan Poe was an American writer and poet best known for his tales of mystery
and macabre. His short stories have long been entrenched in American pop
culture, and he is regarded as one of the greatest inspirations to the modern
horror and mystery genres. His fictional C. Auguste Dupin stories, all included
in this collection, are widely considered the first modern detective story, and
these stories would become a foundational influence to Arthur Conan Doyle’s
famous detective Sherlock Holmes. Poe's notable works include The
Fall of the House of Usher (1839), The Tell-Tale Heart (1843), The
Black Cat (1843), and The Raven (1845), among many others. He died
in 1849.
The following 13 tales
and 13 poems are included:
Tales: The Fall of the
House of Usher; The Tell-Tale Heart; the Black Cat; The Cask of Amontillado; The
Pit and the Pendulum; The Masque of the Red Death; The Oval Portrait; The Premature
Burial; A Descent into the Maelström; Ligeia.
The C. Auguste Dupin
Mysteries: The Murders in the Rue Morgue; The Mystery of Marie Rogêt; The
Purloined Letter.
Poems:
The Raven; Annabel Lee; Alone; Dream-Land; Eldorado; The Sleeper; Lenore; The
City and the Sea; To Helen; The Bells; The Valley of Unrest; To One in Paradise;
A Dream within a Dream.
