Edgar Allan Poe was one of the earliest pioneers of the short story and perfected the tale of psychological horror. The entirety of Poe's body of imaginative work encompasses detective tales, satires, fables, fantasies, science fiction, verse dramas and some of the most evocative poetry in the English language. This leatherbound omnibus collects all of Poe's fiction and poetry in a single volume, including "The Fall of the House of Usher", "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Pit and the Pendulum", "The Raven", "Annabel Lee", and the full-length novel "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket". "The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe" is part of "Barnes & Noble"'s series of quality leatherbound volumes. Each title in the series presents a classic work in an attractively designed edition bound in genuine bonded leather. These books make elegant additions to any home library.

The presentation of this particular book is excellent in black leather with silver leaf on the edges of the pages with a ribbon book mark. This book is a joy to read, with poems and short stories. Not all of Poe's stories are horror-filled; some are very witty and cleverly written. I was introduced to Poe's works as a child and absolutely love this book. It is a joy to add to my book collection. - Debbie Walton Write a review
