A new, beautifully laid-out, easy-to-read edition of Edgar Allan Poe's C. August Dupin trilogy -- the birth of detective fiction as a genre. This edition includes the following stories:
Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) is best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is regarded as a central figure of American literature, as one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story and the inventor of detective fiction and science fiction as respective genres.

Paperback. Etat : Good. Between 1841 and 1844, Edgar Allan Poe invented the detective fiction genre with his mesmerizing stories of a young French eccentric named C. Auguste Dupin. Introducing to literature the concept of applying reason to solving crime, these tales brought Poe fame and fortune. Years later, Dorothy Sayers would describe The Murders in the Rue Morgue as almost a complete manual of detective theory and practice. Indeed, Poe's short mysteries inspired the creation of countless literary sleuths, among them Sherlock Holmes. Today, the Dupin stories still stand out as unique and utterly engrossing. In addition to The Murders in the Rue Morgue, this collection contains The Purloined Letter (also featuring C. Auguste Dupin), The Thousand-and-Second Tale of Scheherazade, A Descent into the Maelstrom, The Raven, and The Masque of the Red Death. N° de réf. du vendeur 00107455367
