The first new edition of this landmark anthology since 1945 presents a more complicated, perverse, and culturally engaged Poe. Along with the author's familiar masterworks in poetry and fiction, this new Portable Poe includes satirical tales that reflect his critique of American culture.

I can't remember where I read it, but I really enjoyed the Tell-Tale Heart so I thought I would enjoy the rest of his stories, as well, but I was so very wrong. I'm not saying they are bad, not at all, but they just aren't for me. To me, these tales were very... dull and drawn out. Most of it went over my head and I found myself zoning out and having to reread several paragraphs multiple times before the words would take.
The strangest part is that this book felt almost supernatural. No matter how many pages I read, it never seemed to get shorter and it felt like it took ages to finish it. But maybe that's just because it was such a struggle to force myself to finish it, I don't know. It just felt like no matter how many pages I turned, it took longer than it should to reach the end.
