Publisher's Synopsis
"The Raven" is one of Edgar Allen Poe's most famous poems, but it is harder to choose his greatest short story. Is it, "The Tell-Tale Heart"? Or, "The Cask of Amontillado"? Or perhaps "The Fall of the House of Usher"? In this collection, you can read "The Raven" and fifteen of Poe's greatest stories, and decide for yourself which is the best. Also included in this volume: "The Pit and the Pendulum", "The Black Cat", "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", "The Purloined Letter", "Ms. Found in a Bottle", "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar", "The Premature Burial", "The Masque of Red Death", "The Balloon Hoax", "William Wilson", "The System of Dr. Tarr and Prof. Fether", and last but not least, "Hop Frog."
