A Quick Tip by rickfazollo

  • Jul 15, 2010
I like and at the same I don't like Poe's stories. It is very dark, misterious, goes deep in a nightmare fantasy. It's an emotional disturbing.

There are few people who can say they began something that was truly new. Along with Nathaniel Hawthorne, Poe created the short story form. They were both also instrumental in both the creation of horror, suspense and detective genres.

i havent read ALL of poes work. not sure that anyone really has. there are deffinately ones that have never been discovered or anything. but how could anyone not like classics like the raven and tell tale heart? he had a dark yet exciting way of writing that just pulled you in. no matter if it was a poem or short story that didnt ryhme at all. it was still catchy. my favorite from him is by far "alone". the complete loneliness he describes is deffinately an eye opener.

I have always been a big fan of Edgar Allen Poe. He was a disturbed mind that produced fear inducing, nail biting, suspenseful, horror stories. True psychological horror stories.

Poe's stories are eerie and deep. He's one of my favorite authors.

His work is timeless.

Edgar Allan Poe was a wonderful writer. I really enjoyed this book. The short stories are obviously well written and even if you don't have much time to read, this book is easy to get through. Take it on the bus or train and enjoy reading on your way to and from work.
review by . September 04, 2009
Edgar Allan Poe is one of America’s most famous, and most misunderstood, men of letters. As this book shows, he was much more than just a horror writer. He made his living, such as it was, with his pen, so he did all sorts of writing. He wrote satire, comedy, poetry, adventure and gothic stories. He was also one of the originators of the mystery genre, along with being an inspiration for Arthur Conan Doyle. Poe was also known as a literary critic; others may have disagreed with him, but they …
