内容提要:
Born to an unfortunate heritage, orphaned, unsympathetically raised, and then abandoned, Edgar Allan Poe struggled for greatness in an adverse social and conomic climate -- a setting not improved by his fiery temperament and caustic criticism of others. Poe's melancholy brilliance, his passionate lyricism, and his tormented soul would make him one of the most widely read and original writers in American literature. Here, in one volume, are his classic short works: masterpieces of horror, terror, humor, and adventure -- and the finest lyric and narrative poetry of this ill-fated genius whose influence on both prose and verse continues to this day.
Pocket Books' Enriched Classics present the great works of world literature enhanced for the contemporary reader. This edition of Great Tales And Poems Of Edgar Allan Poe contains the original Pocket Books introduction, first published in 1951, along with an updated selection of critical excerpts, and suggestions for further readings. 作者简介 Edgar Allan Poe,Born to an unfortunate heritage,orphaned at the age of three,unsympathetically raised and then abandoned ,Edgar Allan Poe strove for immortaility even as he suffered from crippling bouts of depression and malaise,and died in miserable circumstances in 1849,probably from the effects of a heart attack. 喜欢读"这本书"的人也喜欢:
