“No library is complete without Mr. Poe. There is no other author or poet that quite captures the outrĂ© with such lush, black elegance. Everyone is familiar with the captivating, uncomfortably engrossing horror tales such as "The Pit and the Pendulum" and "The Red Death": stories that draw you into the depths of plain human terror, both logical and superstitious, real and imagined. Yet his complete works are more varied than running the full spectrum of human fear, bringing us the first detective story with "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", the adventure-horror story that went on to inspire Lovecraft, among others, with "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym", and many other various examinations of the sciences of humanity from the era. For these reasons, I recommend a book like this that compiles his entire body of work-- it really is more worth it than simply sticking to the known tales and a few select, more popular poems.” Natalina
