    Edgar Allan Poe

    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49) reigned unrivaled in his mastery of mystery during his lifetime and is now widely held to be a central figure of Romanticism and gothic horror in American literature. Born in Boston, he was orphaned at age three, was expelled from West Point for gambling, and later became a well-regarded literary critic and editor. The Raven, published in 1845, made Poe famous. He died in 1849 under what remain mysterious circumstances and is buried in Baltimore, Maryland.

      I love it fine story and awesome sound, listen it
    • 5/5
      It excellent read, as a reader I got the sense that the heart was narrating as the inner voice of the old man and that perhaps the old man was not faithful to his heart and loved it

      Suffocatingly thrilling! A great narration for the ears and the mind.

      So creepy! But so so good. The background noises really added to the atmosphere and made it infinitely creepier
