The Tell Tale Heart - The Short Stories of Edgar Allan Poe (Fantasy and Horror Classics)
This vintage book contains Edgar Allen Poe's 1843 short story, "The Tell-Tale Heart". An anonymous narrator recounts a murder that he has committed, detailing how he carefully dismembered the body and concealed it underneath the floorboards. His endeavours, however, are threatened when his guilt and insanity take on the form of a hallucination that the victim's heart is still beating from beneath the floor. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American author, editor, poet, and critic. Most famous for his stories of mystery and horror, he was one of the first American short story writers, and is widely considered to be the inventor of the detective fiction genre. Many antiquarian books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
William Wilson (Fantasy and Horror Classics)
This antiquarian volume contains Edgar Allen Poe's 1839 short story, "William Wilson". Inspired by his time spent living in the suburbs of London, Poe's uncanny story tells the tale of William Wilson and his doppelg nger. The two boys look and move similarly, and when one leaves school, the other does the same. The only difference between the two is their moral code, a disparity that eventually leads to a fatal incident in later life.

The narrator's second marriage comes to a similarly tragic end, resulting in the uncanny reappearance of the mysterious Ligeia. A gripping and atmospheric tale, "Ligeia" is highly recommended for fans of fantasy and horror fiction, and would make for a fantastic addition to any collection.

Edgar Allan Poe's only long fiction has provoked intense scholarly discussions about its meaning since its first publication. The novel relates the adventures of Pym after he stows away on a whaling ship, where he endures starvation, encounters with cannibals, a whirlpool, and finally a journey to an Antarctic sea. It draws on the conventions of travel writing and science fiction, and on Poe's own experiences at sea, but is ultimately in a category of its own. Appendices include virtually all of the contemporary sources of exploration and south polar navigation that Poe consulted and adapted to the narrative, together with reviews and notices of Pym and a sampling of responses to the novel from a wide array of authors, from Herman Melville to Jules Verne. Seven illustrations are also included.
