Emily Pickup ，

This book is beautiful， but nobody needs to read that much Poe。 You start this book enjoying the stories and the end all of the stories have blurred together into a nightmare of pathetic rambling。 I’m sure some of the chapters have amazing five-star tales， however I couldn’t tell you about them as they are lost between 50 boring stories。 I never want to read Poe ever again。

Look。 This is the most beautiful book I own。 Beyond a shadow of a doubt。 It is utterly gorgeous。 As for the content， well。。。Edgar Allan Poe is a phenomenal poet。 The Raven remains a classic piece of literature， and Poe's sense of structure and mood knows no equal。 His stories are another matter。 His， dense， rambling prose reads like a pretentious mansplainer trying to find out if you're a real fan of nineteenth century ships。 Years go by before he gets to the point， if there even is a point。 And Look。 This is the most beautiful book I own。 Beyond a shadow of a doubt。 It is utterly gorgeous。 As for the content， well。。。Edgar Allan Poe is a phenomenal poet。 The Raven remains a classic piece of literature， and Poe's sense of structure and mood knows no equal。 His stories are another matter。 His， dense， rambling prose reads like a pretentious mansplainer trying to find out if you're a real fan of nineteenth century ships。 Years go by before he gets to the point， if there even is a point。 And occasionally the point is that God might exist， or don't be perverse。 And all is well-seasoned with outright racism。 That being said， there are some real gems in there。 The Tell-tale Heart， The Masque of the Red Death， the Black Cat， the Fall of the House of Usher， Berenice， the Cask of Amontillado to name a few。 So unless you really like good-looking books and poetry， read his selected works。 。。。more
