Title: Unabridged? I don't think so.
Review: Yes, Poe is an extraordinary storyteller. Yes, his content is magnificent. Yes, he is a grandmaster of American literature. My poor review of this CD set is removed from Poe himself, but with the word "Unabridged" that is unabashedly displayed on the cover. While some of the stories do appear in their original form, many are cut, truncated, and butchered. The performances are extraordinary, sometimes chilling, renditions; however, they are not, as promised, "Unabridged." If it wasn't for that one word, that one promise of content on the packaging, I would give this set five stars.
Is the review positive or negative?
