Edgar Allan Poe

An apartment on the rue Morgue turned into a charnel house; the corpse of a shopgirl dragged from the Seine; a high-stakes game of political blackmail-three mysteries that have enthralled the whole of Paris, and baffled the city's police. The brilliant Chevalier Auguste Dupin investigates - can he find the solution where so many others before him have failed? These three stories from the pen of Edgar Allan Poe are some of the most influential ever written, widely praised and credited with inventing the detective genre. This edition contains: 'The Murders in the Rue Morgue', 'The Mystery of Marie Rogêt' and 'The Purloined Letter'.

Her præsenteres i de allerbedste af Edgar Allan Poes fortællinger i en meget flot bogudgivelse. Genremæssigt kommer bogen vidt omkring. Med i udvalget er selvfølgelig fortællingerne, der skabte krimigenren, hvoraf de mest kendte er ‘Mordene i Rue Morgue’ og ‘Det stjålne brev’. Og gyserhistorierne, der var mindst lige så genredefinerende, fx ‘Amontilladofadet’ og ‘Den aflange kasse’. Men Poe var desuden en af de store pionerer inden for science fiction, hvad vi fx får at se i ‘Kendsgerningerne i sagen om M. Valdemar’. Og så var han en stor stilist og humorist, hvad der skinner igennem det meste af, hvad han skrev. I alt giver bogen 30 perler fra mesterens hånd i Hans-Jørgen Birkmoses meget roste danske oversættelse, der fik følgende ros med på vejen, da den udkom første gang i 2007:"Hans-Jørgen Birkmose klarer opgaven mesterligt og genskaber Poe i et levende dansk, der gør fortællingerne indbydende og friske."*****Per Krogh Hansen, Berlingske Tidende

The only full-length novel by Edgar Allan Poe, "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym" was first published in 1838. It is the story of a boy from Nantucket, Arthur Gordon Pym, who stows away aboard a whaling ship, the "Grampus", with the help of his friend Augustus, the ship captain's son. Pym and Augustus experience many unexpected adventures and misfortunes at sea, including mutiny, violent storms, cannibalism, and the destruction of the ship. Eventually, only Pym and another sailor, Dirk Peters, have survived and are clinging to the debris when they are rescued by the "Jane Guy", a fishing ship headed to the southern seas. Pym becomes fascinated by the interesting birds and wildlife to be found near the Antarctic and convinces the captain to sail even further south. Pym's adventures continue as the sailors meet aggressive natives and strange new lands. Rich with symbolism and allegory, Poe who sought to make the novel full of believable details, was heavily inspired by many popular travel journals of his time. "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym" greatly influenced writers such as Herman Melville and Jules Verne and remains to this day an exciting nautical adventure. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

The complete poetic musings of the master of the sepulchral and macabre are collected here, in this classic volume. The author of such masterful and reknowned verses as "The Raven," "The Haunted Palace," and "The Conqueror Worm," lived a short, tagic life as dark and morbid as his most melancholy verse. His dark, gothic mind and haunted soul is preserved forever in this, his collected body of poetic masterpieces.
