The story is set in a nameless Italian city in an unspecified year (possibly sometime during the eighteenth century) and concerns the deadly revenge taken by the narrator on a friend who he claims has insulted him. Like several of Poe's stories, and in keeping with the 19th-century fascination with the subject, the narrative revolves around a person being buried alive – in this case, by immurement. http://feedbooks.com/book/762.png http://feedbooks.com/book/762.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/762.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/762.mobi The Colloquy of Monos and Una Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/763 en 1841 Short Fiction Horror http://feedbooks.com/book/763.png http://feedbooks.com/book/763.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/763.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/763.mobi A Descent into the Maelström Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/765 en 1841 Short Fiction Horror Inspired by the Moskstraumen, it is couched as a story within a story, a tale told at the summit of a mountain climb. The story is told by an old man who reveals that he only appears old - "You suppose me a very old man," he says, "but I am not. It took less than a single day to change these hairs from a jetty black to white, to weaken my limbs, and to unstring my nerves." The narrator, convinced by the power of the whirlpools he sees in the ocean beyond, is then told of the "old" man's fishing trip with his two brothers a few years ago. http://feedbooks.com/book/765.png http://feedbooks.com/book/765.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/765.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/765.mobi The Devil in the Belfry Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/766 urn:isbn:1594561761 en 1839 Short Fiction Horror http://feedbooks.com/book/766.png http://feedbooks.com/book/766.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/766.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/766.mobi The Domain of Arnheim Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/768 urn:isbn:159456177X en 1846 Short Fiction Fantasy http://feedbooks.com/book/768.png http://feedbooks.com/book/768.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/768.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/768.mobi The Fall of the House of Usher Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/772 urn:isbn:1420927035 en 1839 Short Fiction Horror The tale opens with the unnamed narrator arriving at the house of his friend, Roderick Usher, having received a letter from him in a distant part of the country complaining of an illness and asking for his comfort. http://feedbooks.com/book/772.png http://feedbooks.com/book/772.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/772.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/772.mobi The Imp of the Perverse Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/777 urn:isbn:1594561818 en 1845 Short Fiction Horror http://feedbooks.com/book/777.png http://feedbooks.com/book/777.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/777.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/777.mobi The Masque of the Red Death Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/789 en 1842 Short Fiction Horror "The Masque of the Red Death", originally published as "The Mask of the Red Death", is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe and first published in 1842. The story follows Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a dangerous plague known as the Red Death by hiding in his abbey. He, along with many other wealthy nobles, has a masquerade ball within seven rooms of his abbey, each decorated with a different color. In the midst of their revelry, a mysterious figure enters and makes his way through each of the rooms. When Prospero confronts this stranger, he falls dead. The story follows many traditions of Gothic fiction and is often analyzed as an allegory about the inevitability of death, though some critics advise against an allegorical reading. Many different interpretations have been presented, as well as attempts to identify the true nature of the disease of the "Red Death." http://feedbooks.com/book/789.png http://feedbooks.com/book/789.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/789.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/789.mobi Mystification Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/797 en 1837 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/797.png http://feedbooks.com/book/797.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/797.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/797.mobi Never Bet the Devil Your Head Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/798 en 1841 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/798.png http://feedbooks.com/book/798.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/798.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/798.mobi The Oblong Box Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/799 urn:isbn:1594567468 en 1844 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/799.png http://feedbooks.com/book/799.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/799.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/799.mobi The Oval Portrait Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/800 en 1842 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/800.png http://feedbooks.com/book/800.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/800.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/800.mobi The Pit and the Pendulum Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/801 en 1842 Short Fiction Horror "The Pit and the Pendulum" is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe and first published in 1842. The story is about the torments endured by a prisoner of the Spanish Inquisition, though Poe skews historical facts. The narrator of the story is deemed guilty for an unnamed crime and put into a completely dark room. He passes out while trying to determine the size of the room. When he wakes up, he realizes there is a large, deep pit in the middle of the room. He loses consciousness again and awakens strapped on his back, unable to move more than his head. He soon realizes there is a large blade-like pendulum hanging above him, slowly getting closer to cutting through his chest. He finds a way to escape but the walls of his prison start to move and close in on him, pushing him closer and closer to falling into the pit. The story is especially effective at inspiring fear in the reader because of its heavy focus on the senses, such as sound, emphasizing its reality, unlike many of Poe's stories which are aided by the supernatural. The traditional elements established in popular horror tales at the time are followed but critical reception has been mixed. http://feedbooks.com/book/801.png http://feedbooks.com/book/801.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/801.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/801.mobi The Power of Words Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/802 en 1845 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/802.png http://feedbooks.com/book/802.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/802.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/802.mobi A Predicament Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/803 urn:isbn:1594566925 en 1838 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/803.png http://feedbooks.com/book/803.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/803.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/803.mobi The Premature Burial Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/804 en 1844 Short Fiction http://feedbooks.com/book/804.png http://feedbooks.com/book/804.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/804.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/804.mobi The Purloined Letter Edgar Allan Poe http://feedbooks.com/book/805 urn:isbn:0801832934 en 1844 Short Fiction "The Purloined Letter" is a short story by American author Edgar Allan Poe.
