Эдгар Аллан По. Собрание сочинений в 4 томах (комплект из 4 книг)

The first volume of Poe's works includes his poetry. The basis of the book was the translations of the famous poets of the "Silver Age" - Konstantin Balmont and Valery Bryusov. A feature of this publication is that it contains the most complete collection of Russian translations of Poe's lyrics, created over more than a hundred years. As a result, the reader will have the opportunity to get as close as possible to the original idea of ​​"The Crow" and other masterpieces of the great American romantic, as well as to trace the various stages of mastering his poetic work in Russia.
The second volume includes his early stories, such as "Morella", "The Fall of the House of Usher", "Ligeia", "Shadow" and others.
Masterfully using a fantastic plot, psychological tension in his stories, the writer "reconciles" two eternally opposing ideas: the frailty of man and his striving for life, and with this purely artistic resolution of the conflict, as it were, removes the feeling of horror of what is happening.

The third volume consisted of works representing the cycle of "Stories" (1845), such as "The Secret of Marie Roger", "The Stolen Letter", and related to the last period of the writer's work.
The collection ends with romantic prose - "The Tale of the Adventures of Arthur Gordon Pym", a fantastic story of travels to the South Seas.

The fourth volume is presented by a cycle of works designated in the writer's work as "Stories that were not included in lifetime collections".
