Edgar Allan Poe: Complete Tales and Poems by Edgar Allan Poe

2.0

---

2.5 stars for the overall book. I found Edgar Allan Poe's poetry far more interesting than his short stories. I either lost interest in his stories or didn't understand them. There were two that I really enjoyed: The Tell-Tale Heart (obviously) and Silence - A Fable. My favorite poems I read of his were Alone, The Raven, Lenore, and Deep in Earth. If you love Edgar Allan Poe's work, you will love this book. His poems were amazing, but like I mentioned before, the stories just weren't for me.
