Description from the seller
Edgar Allan Poe – Prose and Poetry
Moscow: Raduga Publishers, 1983
English-language selection of Edgar Allan Poe’s prose and poetry, published in Moscow by Raduga Publishers in 1983.
Raduga specialized in English and American classics for learning and practicing English, mainly for students and advanced non-native readers.
Printed in English. The volume ends with an extensive English–Russian glossary and commentary, explaining vocabulary, historical references, and literary context for language learners.
The book contains original black-and-white illustrations made for this edition, including small in-text images and full-page illustrations. The illustrations fit the dark mood of Poe’s writing and differ from the usual Western tradition.
Binding: Full faux leather binding with gilt lettering on the spine and front cover.
Condition: Good overall. Original paper dust jacket present, also in good condition.
An interesting example for Poe collectors, especially for those interested in Cold War–era and non-Western English-language editions.
