Knihy autora Edgar Allan Poe


Edgar Allan Poe študoval literatúru na University of Virginia, kde však začal mať problémy s alkoholom a s hráčskymi dlhmi; kvôli tomu sa neskôr rozišiel so svojim nevlastným bratom, ktorý ich za Edgara odmietal platiť. V roku 1834 sa stretol s prvým úspechom, keď získal hlavnú cenu na súťaži, ktorú organizoval Baltimorský týždenník Saturday Visitor so svojim príbehom Rukopis nájdený vo fľaši. Roku 1845 uverejnil Havrana, ktorý doslova ohromil vtedajšiu verejnosť. Poe v tom čase zažil krátke obdobie slávy Poeova smrť bola hodná jeho diel, ktorým sa venoval: Začiatkom októbra 1849 bol nájdený opitý (a zrejme aj pod vplyvom omamných látok) na baltimorskom chodníku v blízkosti Light Street. Bol urýchlene hospitalizovaný, ale z kómy, do ktorej následne upadol sa už neprebral. Zomrel v ranných hodinách 7. októbra 1849. Jeho známe poviedky sú aj Čierny kocúr, Zlatý skarabeus, Jama a kyvadlo, Príbehy Arthura Gordona Pyma.
