The Fall of the House of Usher and Other Tales - Edgar Allan Poe

This volume gathers together fourteen of his richest and most influential tales, including: The Pit and the Pendulum, his reimagining of Inquisition tortures; The Tell-Tale Heart, an exploration of a murderer s madness, which Stephen King called the best tale of inside evil ever written; The Fall of the House of Usher, Poe s tour de force about a family doomed by a grim bloodline curse; and his pioneering detective stories, The Purloined Letter and The Murders in the Rue Morgue, featuring a rational investigator with a poetic soul. Also included is Poe s only full-length novel, "Narrative of A. Gordon Pym." With an Introduction by Stephen Marlowe and an Afterword by Regina Marler"
