The only novella completed by the master of the short story form, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym relates the epic adventures of a boy from Nantucket, as he hides on a whaling ship and experiences the hardships and dangers of life at sea – including a mutinous crew, violent storms, and near starvation – before traveling to the most remote regions of the southern hemisphere. The result is a story as captivating as any of Poe’s horror tales.
Alongside Pym’s subversive adventures, this collection includes many celebrated narratives, such as "The Cask of Amontillado," "The Gold-Bug," and "Hop-Frog," as well as Poe’s second, unfinished novel, The Journal of Julius Rodman, all of which testify to the creative genius of one of America’s greatest storytellers.
