Edgar Allan Poe: Complete Tales and Poems features all of Edgar Allan Poe's classic fiction. It includes "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Black Cat," and other tales of madness and mania; the revenge classics "The Cask of Amontillado" and "Hop Frog"; the gothic chillers "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Mask of the Red Death"; "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," "The Mystery of Marie Roget," and "The Purloined Letter," all featuring detective C. August Dupin; the full-length novel "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket"; and sixty other stories.

This volume also includes more than sixty works of poetry, among them such literary landmarks as "The Raven," "The Bells," "Annabel Lee," "The Haunted Palace," and "The Conqueror Worm." The heroes, heroines, demons, and dreams who populate these poems represent some of the most memorable and imaginatively evoked creations in the English language.
