This deluxe hardback edition presents the classic short stories of Edgar Allan Poe, featuring striking sprayed edges, gold-embossed cover design and acclaimed illustrations by art nouveau artist Harry Clarke.

Edgar Allan Poe was a master of horror literature. While underappreciated in his time, Poe is now recognized as a literary genius whose gothic tales continue to intrigue and entrance. Tales of Mystery and the Imagination brings together his most haunting and celebrated short stories, including ´The Fall of the House of Usher´, ´The Murders in the Rue Morgue´ and ´The Cask of Amontillado´. Prefaced by Poe specialist Dr Brook Haley, these tales of murder, madness and suspense are testament to Poe´s talent.

This beautiful gift edition features sprayed page edges, gold embossing, ivory paper, beautiful endpapers and 27 full-page illustrations by celebrated Irish art nouveau artist Harry Clarke, whose striking and fantastical images perfectly capture the spirit of Poe´s uncanny tales.
