Absolutely. The best writer America produced, if I can say that as a nosy Canadian. I love Poe. The Tell Tale Heart still gives me shivers, every time I read it. And for a change you can sort of thank the French for being big Poe fans. The French Symbolists loved him.

Edgar Allen Poe is amazing. I love his short stories. The Tell-Tale Heart and The Cask of Amontillado are one of his best short stories in my opinion.

Edgar Allen Poe wrote this on the same time as he become deep indoors a dream indoors a dream indoors a dream, as he become slowly awareness the reality around him become all a synthetic from his very own innovations.

Oh yes. I totally agree with you. I love his Raven and his poems. The way he builds up a sense of tension and suspense is wonderful.
