Beschreibung

<p><b>Unique collection of short stories</b><br><br>The only novel completed by the master of the short-story form, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym relates the rollicking adventures of a boy from Nantucket as he stows away on a whaling ship and experiences the hardships and dangers of life at sea - including a mutiny, violent storms and near-starvation - before voyaging to the farthest regions of the southern hemisphere. The result is a yarn as thrilling as any of Poe's horror stories.<br>Alongside Pym's exploits, this collection includes many celebrated tales, such as 'The Cask of Amontillado', 'The Gold Bug' and 'Hop-Frog', as well as Poe's second, unfinished novel, The Journal of Julius Rodman, all of which bear witness to the narrative genius of one of America's greatest storytellers.<br><br><b>Contents:</b> The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, Loss of Breath, Mystification, How to write a Blackwood Article, A Predicament, The Balloon Hoax, The Cask of Amontillado, The Gold Bug, Hop-Frog, The Journal of Julius Rodman</p>
