Maquiavélico, terrorífico, repugnante, horroroso… estas son pocos ejemplos de cómo podríamos describir las novelas de Edgar Allan Poe, donde, con aire de angustia, nos entrega obras en las que predomina sólo una cosa: la locura. En esta pequeña recopilación, podemos encontrar desde los relatos más conocidos, como El gato, negro, El cuervo y El corazón delator, acompañados de algunos no tan renombrados, pero con el mismo objetivo en común: no dejarnos dormir por las noches. Algo destacable en la obra de Poe, es que, por su forma de escribir, de terror y ciencia ficción, dio camino a muchos otros famosos escritores, como Lovecraft, Julio Verne, entre otros. La vida de Poe, así como sus historias, emanaba tragedia; al haber perdido a sus dos padres cuando sólo era un niño, para después perder a su esposa en corta edad. Tirado a los vicios, Poe muere en 1849, por un ataque cerebral.
