“The Edgar Allan Poe Collection” gets 2 stars. Although Edgar Allan Poe's works are classics, the edition leaves much to be desired. The layout of the book does not meet expectations and the print quality is disappointing. Some of the stories are difficult to read because of the outdated language and style, which can make it difficult for modern readers. Nevertheless, for Poe fans, this edition may be interesting, but beginners should start with something more accessible.

About the author
Edgar Allan Poe was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1809, the son of traveling actors. Despite an unsettled childhood, he received a broad education and excelled in ancient languages. Following his studies at the University of Virginia, Poe worked as an editor and literary critic. His own writing was met with growing acclaim, but despite his renown Poe struggled financially throughout his life. In 1836 he married his cousin Virginia Clemm, who died six years later from tuberculosis. The circumstances of Poe's own death in 1849, probably from alcohol abuse, remain shrouded in mystery.
