Complete Poetical Works: (Special Edition) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781725016200)

Edgar Allan Poe is best known for his short stories, but he really was a natural poet. From the immortal classics "Annabel Lee", "The Raven" and "The Bells" to the exquisite lyrics of "To Helen" Poe stands alongside the most acclaimed English romantic poets like Keats, Byron and Shelley. His nostalgic and sensuous poetics vision influncence profoundly by Victorian greatest Rossetti, Tennyson and Swinburne. To this day, his oscure side speaks eloquently to contemporary reader in poems like "The Conqueror Worm" and "The Haunted Palace" with the strong frightening images of absurdity and the macabre. Even at the end of his life, Poe reached out to his art for bravery and comfort, giving us in "Eldorado" a talisman to hold during our gloomy moments-a timeless gift from a great American writer.
