    Author

    Edgar Allan Poe

    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49) reigned unrivaled in his mastery of mystery during his lifetime and is now widely held to be a central figure of Romanticism and gothic horror in American literature. Born in Boston, he was orphaned at age three, was expelled from West Point for gambling, and later became a well-regarded literary critic and editor. The Raven, published in 1845, made Poe famous. He died in 1849 under what remain mysterious circumstances and is buried in Baltimore, Maryland.

      * The Cask of Amontillado - I think makes Poe so memorable is his vivid first-person accounts from the point of view of a killer.* Hop-Frog - Um. What is this man's obsession with orangutans?* MS. Found in a Bottle - Good suspense, but the ending confused me.* Ligeia - Didn't really go anywhere.* The Fall of the House of Usher - Not as interesting as his others, but good atmosphere.* William Wilson - Brilliant piece of horror.* The Masque of the Red Death - Meh. Weird for no reason and kind of boring.* The Imp of the Perverse - A strange little story on why we knowingly act not in our own interest - such as lying, procrastinating, drinking, and other things sure to get us into trouble - to explain a confession of murder.
