Haunted Brilliance: Collected Works and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe
“The fury of a demon instantly possessed me. I knew myself no longer. My original soul seemed, at once, to take its flight from my body and a more than fiendish malevolence, gin-nurtured, thrilled every fiber of my frame.” (From The Black Cat)
Edgar Allan Poe distinguished himself by often writing of dark horrors such as murder, disease, inescapable melancholy, and supernatural vengeance. He wrote also of beautiful things like idyllic landscapes and love. Whatever Poe’s subject, he wrote with intensity and unleashed his unrestrained imagination upon a reading world that can’t forget him. Scenes from his stories blaze vividly with fever-dream details. Dank plasters in cellars drip, molding ancient mansions creak in rising storms, and murderers howl for relief from their stalking guilt.
The prose of Poe is intricate and challenging while remaining utterly engaging. You’ll rush up the spiraling staircases of Poe’s mind where each level reveals human truths as you read through this collection of short stories and poems.
In his forty years of life from 1809 to 1849, Poe was diligently prolific. In this collection you’ll dare to open the coffin and view the following works:
