The undisputed pioneer of the horror, detective and science-fiction genres, Edgar Allan Poe was just as influential as a poet as he is now a celebrated writer of short stories. The present edition contains a large selection of his works in verse, from those he published during his lifetime, such as his famous ballads 'The Raven' and 'Lenore', to those that were collected immediately after his premature death in 1849, including the ones he wrote in his youth. Also included in this volume is a selection of Poe's essays on poetical composition and prosody, revealing that poetry was at the core of the American master's vision of literature, something also demonstrated by the accomplished productions and enduring legacy he has left behind in this field.
