About this book

A collection of Edgar Allan Poe's short fiction, bringing together Gothic terror, psychological suspense, satire and the early detective story. The selection includes The Fall of the House of Usher, The Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Black Cat and The Purloined Letter. Poe's enclosed rooms, unreliable narrators and obsessive minds give these stories their enduring atmosphere of mystery and unease.
