His most famous poem, \"The Raven,\" earned him only $9 when it was published in 1845. His wife, Virginia, died two years after its publication, which seems to have sent Poe into a downward spiral of alcohol abuse and erratic behavior. Poe himself died only two years after Virginia, in 1849, at the age of 40. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This bilingual edition of some of the most famous of Poe's short stories is designed to assist those learning French.
