Klappentext:
The undisputed pioneer of the horror, detective and science-fiction genres, Edgar Allan Poe was an accomplished poet as well as a celebrated writer of short stories. The present edition contains all of his works in verse, from the major poems of his maturity - such as his famous ballads 'The Raven' and 'Lenore' - to those he published in his youth and those that were collected immediately after his premature death in 1849.Also included in this volume is a selection of Poe's essays on poetical composition and prosody, revealing that poetry was at the core of the American master's vision of literature - something also demonstrated by the significant and enduring body of work he left behind in this field.
