Tales of mystery and imagination

I have read the book “tales of mystery and imagination”, writed by Edgar Allan Poe. This book has 6 stories: “You are the man”, “The golden bug”, “The stolen letter”, ”The Murders in the Rue Morgue”, “Down into the Maelstrom” and “The Pit and the Pendulum”.

I like a lot the tales by Poe because he creates a tension on the story that I like a lot.

Stories that I most like of this book are´: “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” and “The golden Bug” althroug this stories aren't scary.

In the first one I like a lot the detective who solves the crimes using the logic. In the second one I like the story and how the friend of the main character finds the treasure.

And of Poe I can say that he was borned in 1909 and he died in 1949, when he was fourty years old.

He had a hard life, with a lot of drugs and depression, he was a little crazy.

Was the first writer who tried live only writing, because on this time every writers were journalists too.

He didn't gets his objetive but he tried....

I like a lot the Poe's tales and I want to read all the tales in spanish because I think that I will undertand and enjoy more.
