Description
Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque, the companion volume to Poe’s better-known Tales of Mystery and Imagination, contains a selection of his very best stories, many of which first appeared in book form in the original Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque in 1840. Many of the stories deal with the familiar Poe themes of murder, obsession and passion, but this volume also contains many often-overlooked tales of the fantastic and comic, parodies and hoaxes, including ‘The Unparalleled Adventure of Hans Pfaall’, ‘Mesmeric Revelation’, ‘Hop-Frog’, and & ‘The Imp of the Perverse’.

The book includes a section in colour, and contains useful essays from notable scholars: an introduction by Kevin J. Hayes and Benjamin F. Fisher on Poe and the gothic.
