This old edition is as perfectly musty and decayed as Poe himself.
My introduction to poetry on a personal level and possibly where I acquired my love for literature. Poe is a wonderful poet. His stories are both dark and depressing yet beautiful. A must read for poetry buffs.

I didn’t read this entire volume but wanted to get a feel for Poe’s other works beyond what I read in high school. Didn’t immediately love but I think I will try listening as audio book. I do love gothic style works generally.
This treasure chest of Poe’s poems and short stories is the kind of book you savor over time. Each time I read Poe, I am reminded of what a great writer he was. Unfortunately, I missed the book club discussion (this being our October pick) and would have loved to hear what everyone thought or different ways of looking at his writing. This is a book to buy and keep at home!
The fall of the house of usher inspired me to actually read more poe.
I'm working my way through.
Works I've read:
The fall of the house of usher
Masque of the read death
Tell tale heart
Pit and the pendulum
The goldbug
Murders on the rue morgue
The black cat
The imp of the perverse
Cask of Amontillado
