One of the most original American writers, Edgar Allen Poe shaped the development of both the detectvie story and the science-fiction story. Some of his poems 'The Raven, ' 'The Bells, ' 'Annabel Lee' remain among the most popular in American literature. Poe's tales of the mmacabre still thrill readers of all ages. Here are familiar favorites like 'The Purloined Letter, ' 'The Fall of the House of Usher, ' and 'The Murders in the Rue Morgue, ' together with less-known masterpieces like 'The Imp of the Perverse, ' 'The Narrative of A. Gordon Pym, ' and 'Ligeia, ' which is now recognised as one of the first science-fiction stories, a total of seventy-three tales in all, plus fifty-three poems and a generous sampling of Poe's essays, criticism and journalistic writings.
