Book Reviews of Complete Tales & Poems of Edgar Allen Poe
Book Review: A surprising lesson from a well known poet
Summary: 4 Stars
I did not know what to expect from this book, but I was pleasantly surprised and pleased of this choice of bed time reading. Edgar Allan Poe is one of the world's most famous scarey poets, though only a few of his works are well known. This book sensibly places his famous poem 'The Raven', at the beginning of the poetry section, to entice the reader onwards, which you will not be able to stop yourself from doing. It does the writer great justice, by bringing together his complete works and allowing the reader to be able to take in all of his tales and poems, not just to allow you to go over the well known ones again and again. This book is perfect for those who would like to read poetry, but who find the lovey dovey stuff a bit too much. Poe famously takes poetry and story telling to a new level for his time and is even considered terrifying in some ways now. These frightening tales of woe and horror and poems of murder and science fiction will keep even the most negative lover of literature amused for hours on end.
