Title: Macabre , Mysterious, & Masterful
Review: Poe is a masterful storyteller. I read him when I was in high school and fell under his spell. I read him again as an adult, and feel that I am still just touching the tip of his depth. I enjoyed him immensely at bothe levels. He throws in French and Latin quotes that still largely mystify me. But even with those aside the tales are wonderfully mysterious. Poe often leaves you wondering throughout the entire story, "What exactly is going on?" While the poor fellow led a tragic life himself, it produced in him some wonderful tales. They infuse the reader with a creeping sense of awe that writers of gory horror cannot hope to match.
