HarperCollins presents a stunning collection of classic works that have been much loved.

"...Take thy beak from my heart, and take thy form from off my door!” Quoth the Raven, “Nevermore.”

This selection of Edgar Allan Poe's poetical works includes some of his most famous pieces, such as the triumphant and celebratory "The Bells," the tragic ode "Annabel Lee," and his famous gothic work "The Raven." Some present strong, nightmarish images of the macabre and the absurd, while others centrally feature deep sentimentality, beauty, and loss. All are linguistic masterpieces that demonstrate Poe's talent for marrying rhyme, form, and meaning.

As an American writer primarily of prose and literary criticism, Edgar Allan Poe never stopped writing poetry throughout his tumultuous life and is today regarded as a central figure in American literary romanticism. He passed away in 1849.
