Book Description

Edgar Allan Poe's only novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket is a pivotal work in which Poe calls attention to the act of writing and to the problem of representing the truth. It is an archetypal American story of escape from domesticity tracing a young man's rite of passage through a series of terrible brushes with death during a fateful sea voyage. Included are eight related tales which further illuminate Pym by their treatment of persistent themes--fantastic voyages, gigantic whirlpools, and premature burials--as well as its relationship to Poe's art and life.

Edgar Allan Poe is a famous American poet and novelist. He possessed an extraordinary poetic and literary talent; He began reading and writing poetry when he was five years old, which surprised his teachers, and throughout his life, writing was his haven and haven. He began publishing his poetry since he was a conscript, under the pseudonym "Alan Berry", then continued his literary production. In addition to his poetry, he had a distinctive story production that made him a founding father of what was known as “Gothic horror literature,” which was replete with stories and stories. "Po" died a poor debtor at the age of forty in the year 1849 CE, two years after the death of his young wife, whom he loved so badly, because of his cruelty and pain.
