Murders in the Rue Morgue and Other Tales

‘…an agility astounding, a strength superhuman, a ferocity brutal, a butchery without motive, a grotesquerie in horror absolutely alien from humanity…’ Horror, madness, violence and the dark forces hidden in humanity abound in this collection of Poe’s brilliant tales, including – among others – the bloody, brutal and baffling murder of a mother and daughter in Paris in \”The Murders in the Rue Morgue\”, the creeping insanity of \”The Tell-Tale Heart\”, the Gothic nightmare of \”The Masque of the Red Death\”, and the terrible doom of \”The Fall of the House of Usher\”.
