The Murders in the Rue Morgue
An account of a bizarre crime accompanied by the grotesque, hideously violent murders of several people.
The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether
As this peculiar, often comedic story progresses, it becomes increasingly difficult for a visitor to a madhouse to distinguish between the sane and the insane.
Shadow: A Parable
This very dark and forbidding writing speaks of our fears of the unknown and nameless threats and terrors that feed upon our doubts and our uncertainties.
Silence: A Fable
This short work capsulizes the ability of the human soul to better withstand the forces of nature and life.
Customer Reviews
V. nice.
A nice collection indeed. Pay no attention, however, to the pictured cover as the narration is done by Mr Davies (as noted in the text) and not Messrs. Price and Rathbone.
