This book is one of the most worthy I ever bought. Besides having a great binding, it allows you to read ANY of Poes's works in a single volume. It will surely keep you entertained for a long time. The only complaint I have is that "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket" had its preface omitted, and if someone reads the narrative without having read the preface before, it will not make much sense in the end, I believe.

I really enjoy visiting this book from time to time. Just think: all of Poes great short stories and poems in one volume. The down side: the print size in this two-inch thick book is VERY tiny. So, if you're reading vision is not great, you may want to try a less comprehensive collection.

Discovery is one of the greatest thrills of reading, and if you think you have a fairly sufficient understanding of Poe from only such works as "The Raven" or "The Tell-Tale Heart", think again.
After reading this volume I was impressed at the breadth of Poe's work. His most famous works,I have deciceded, are certainly NOT his best ones. Incidentally, this means that if you love Poe, you may grow to love him more. If you are even somewhat attracted to the uncanny aspect of his stories, behold his lesser known and far stranger works.
Poe's Victorian attachment to exacting detail makes several of these stories quite gripping. His odd imagination comes to life most vividly in his humor. Yes, Poe wrote humor! Try "the Angel of The Odd", "The Scythe of Time, "The Imp of the Perverse", "The Devil in the Belfry", or "Never Bet the Devil Your Head".
After finishing some of these works, you'll wonder why your high school teachers assigned the blandest of his selections, leaving you with what you may soon consider to be a rather shallow appreciation of his writing. To label Poe as merely a horror writer is akin to labelling Thomas Jefferson as a farmer.
Discover an American macabre genius all over again: revel in his irony and his wit. Buy the book, light up a fire on a crisp autumn night, and experience the complete Poe.
