Selected Short Stories and Poems - Edgar Allan Poe

From the cosmic terror of MS. Found in a Bottle and the bizarre aerial voyage of Hans Pfaall, to the chilling scientific limbo of M. Valdemar and the claustrophobic dread of The Premature Burial, Edgar Allan Poe probes the fragile boundary between life and death. In Ligeia, Morella, and Berenice, love becomes a fixation and identity refuses to die, while Eleonora offers a rare, dreamlike meditation on memory and loss.Interwoven with these tales are some of Poe’s most haunting poems. Annabel Lee and For Annie sing of love that survives death, suspended between grief and a strange sense of serenity.
