Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe was born in Boston in 1809. His parents, both touring actors, died before he was three. He was raised by John Allan, a prosperous Virginian merchant. Poe published his first volume of poetry while still a teenager. He worked as an editor for magazines in Philadelphia, Richmond and New York, and achieved respect as a literary critic. In 1836, he married his thirteen year-old cousin. It was only with the publication of The Raven and other Poems in 1845 that he achieved national fame as a writer. Poe died in mysterious circumstances in 1849.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An absolute master of verse and prose
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love Edgar Allen Poe.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5It was very slow and calm in the beginning not to much excitement. It didn’t have my attention but I read it to see if I would understand it a little more then what I thought about it. I had given up on this book because I wasn’t finding any interest and I didn’t really understand its way of explaining things or what they were doing. Yea, there were some good parts in the book I am not going to lie but not to the point where I wanted to read more about it. It’s a good book for those who are into like poem type readers or those who know how to read in the way they talked back then as like in ‘Romeo and Juliet.’ It has some mystery that is quit interesting. In some moments when I wasn’t reading the book I read the poems in the back of the book to see what they were about. They were long and not to the point. I had to read it a few times before I actually got what he was talking about.
