Author Notes
The Stories of Edgar Allen Poe
Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, editor, and literary critic. Born in 1809, he is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer totry to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.Stacy King is the editor for Manga Classics, a critically-acclaimed line of modern adaptations of literary classics in a manga format.
