    About this audiobook

    American poet, critic, and short-story writer Edgar Allan Poe is universally recognized for his cultivation of the macabre in fiction. His stories are characterized by an original kind of supernatural horror, often using the awareness of death as a catalyzing force in its own right. His tales and poems brim with psychological depth and intense imagery, made vivid through his musical language and hypnotic rhythms, which are especially captivating when heard aloud.

    This special audio collection features some of Poe’s best known classic stories, including:

    1. The Tell Tale Heart
    2. Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar
    3. Hop Frog
    4. Murder in the Rue Morgue
    5. The Masque of the Red Death
    6. The Pit and the Pendulum
    7. The Fall of the House of Usher
    8. The Black Cat
    9. The Cask of Amontillado

    Edgar Allan Poe

    Edgar Allan Poe was born in Boston in 1809. His parents, both touring actors, died before he was three. He was raised by John Allan, a prosperous Virginian merchant. Poe published his first volume of poetry while still a teenager. He worked as an editor for magazines in Philadelphia, Richmond and New York, and achieved respect as a literary critic. In 1836, he married his thirteen year-old cousin. It was only with the publication of The Raven and other Poems in 1845 that he achieved national fame as a writer. Poe died in mysterious circumstances in 1849.
