Collected Works of Poe vol. 1

"The person who has never passed out is not someone who sees strange palaces and extremely familiar faces in burning embers, not someone who sees melancholy dreams floating in the air that most people don't see, not someone who meditates on the scent of an unknown flower, not someone whose mind has never caught his attention before. He is not one who is confused with the meaning of a tune." The Pit and the Pendulum Edgar Allan Poe, who has predicted many paths of Western thought in the next century, has been a source of discussion and inspiration for many writers and thinkers from Baudelaire to Benjamin, is undoubtedly one of the most prominent and mysterious creators of the history of literature. Bringing together the essential prose of Poe, from his short stories to satires and satires, these three volumes are a critical edition, unlike the Poe translations published so far.
