Description from the seller


This beautiful anthology contains 29 fantastical and macabre stories by Edgar Allan Poe. It combines some of his most popular tales—including The Fall of the House of Usher and The Murders in the Rue Morgue—with lesser-known gems. Illustrated with 8 full-color plates and 24 full-page drawings full of sultry eroticism by Harry Clarke, a brilliant Edwardian artist who was overshadowed for too long by his contemporary Aubrey Beardsley. It is a particularly beautiful reprint from 1935.
