If you are a fan or collector of all things- Edgar Allan Poe, then this is a great addition to your collection. Since the publication of Edgar Allan Poe's- Tales of Mystery and Imagination in 1902, many talented artists have tried to bring Poe's imagination to a visual reality. In the reprint of Tales of Mystery and Imagination in 1919, Harry Clarke created the twenty-four monochrome images collected in this book that perhaps evoked the delirious claustrophobia and frightening inventiveness of "Poe-land" the finest.
