Wickedly clever. Deeply unsettling. Darkly unforgettable. The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce brings together the full range of writing by one of America's most caustic, brilliant, and enigmatic literary figures. Known for his razor-sharp wit, unflinching realism, and chilling imagination, Bierce crafted stories and essays that still shock, amuse, and provoke more than a century later. This comprehensive volume includes Bierce's best-known horror stories, Civil War fiction, biting satire, journalistic essays, and his legendary Devil's Dictionary—a masterpiece of cynical humor and linguistic brilliance. 📚 Includes major works such as: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge Chickamauga The Damned Thing The Boarded Window The Devil's Dictionary The Moonlit Road Tales of Soldiers and Civilians Can Such Things Be? Essays, fables, poems, and journalism Whether he's writing ghost stories that chill the spine or defining "love" as "a temporary insanity curable by marriage," Bierce remains a singular voice—dark, clever, and fearlessly original. "Bierce's work bridges the gothic and the modern with unsettling ease." — The Paris Review "The original master of American horror and satire." — The New York Times "He saw humanity clearly—and didn't flinch." — Goodreads Reviewer Perfect for fans of Poe, Lovecraft, Twain, and sharp satire, The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce is a must-read for lovers of dark fiction and American literature.
