Tag: Edgar Allan Poe

The short entry is an essay on “diddling,” a word which has gone out of style. Yet it seems to us that it would still serve a very useful purpose today.

This short story is sort of a mix between horror and humor. 

This short story gives as a pretty decent story about grifters. 

The writing style was pretty poor, it was so poor that it almost didn’t look likt Edgar Allan Poe have written it. 

This story was not a mystery, not a horror story, and not a poem but still it is worth to read it if you are a Edgar Allan Poe fan like me. 

It was an  entertaining read, but it could have been much better than it actually was. 

This story sort of seems more like an essay than a short story. But it also have sort of a  collection of factious diddlings vibe to it. 

This one seems like more a collection of various scams that were circulating at that time.

I give this poem 2 / 5

The poem takes the reader through Death’s city. He rules this place from a throne and towers over it “gigantically”. The city is lit by nothing but the light from the sea.

So another pretty good poem from no other than Edgar Allan Poe.

The writing style is amazing as you can from Edgar Allan Poe. 

In this poem Edgar Allan Poe gives an elaborately grim picture by only using his words and writing style which is depicting a sinister atmospheric.

This poem needs to get points for being vivid and full of life and meaning.

This poem is one of very few poems which you can re-read dozen times without being bored of it.

This poem isn’t scary but it sort of gives you a chill. 

This poem much be one of Edgar Allan Poe’s much  dark and gloomy gothic poems.

I give this poem 3 / 5

The plot involves a man wrongfully accused of murdering his uncle Barnabas Shuttleworthy, whose corpse is missing. An unnamed narrator finds the body, suspects the victim’s good friend Charles Goodfellow, and sets up an elaborate plot to expose him.

So another enjoyable, fun and very quick short story from Edgar Allan Poe. 

The writing style is pretty decent, but Edgar Allan Poe was able to do much better than this one.

This story is an amazing to read even you looking for something to pass time with.

To be fully honest with you I need to say that this story is probably the most predictable story from Edgar Allan Poe. 

This story is sort of a detective story with huge gothic vibe. But i need to say it isn’t about solving a mystery. It’s more about exposing a murderer and clearing an innocent man from not being the murder. 

I give this poem 3 / 5

This poem speaks about nature, especially the sky, the sun, and it also speaks of God

Need to say that this one was pretty hard to understand at once. That’s why I needed to read this at least 3 times to finally understand that. 

This poem is somewhat very cryptic and pretty random when you look who have written it. 

The writing style was pretty amazing this one. And pretty much the best part about this poem was the writing style.

I give this poem 3 / 5

This one has only four lines. It seems to come from a letter Edgar Allan Poe wrote to Isaac Lea.

This one was another very short poem from Edgar Allan Poe.

The writing style was pretty decent but Edgar Allan Poe was capable of a better job.

This poem was surprisingly wise and intelligent in its few lines that it has.

The theme of this poem as I said above was pretty amazing and wise put together into one poem.

I give this poem 3 / 5

This one describes a speaker waking and dreaming state and the brief moments of light and hope he experiences. The speaker begins this piece by introducing a dark dream that he was subject to. This dream, and the emotions he experienced during it, are not unfamiliar to him.

This one is another pretty okay poem from Edgar Allan Poe. 

This one I need to say is one of Edgar Allan Poe’s poems that sort of hit you hard with its lines. Of course there are few of these lines in this poem. But they count. 

If you are a long time fan of Edgar Allan Poe and you have read several of his poems and short stories Im pretty sure that you will like and enjoy this poem. 

This one is 100% worth reading. But in my humble opinion this one sort of have failed to pack the punch of some of Edgar Allan Poe’s other short stories and poems.

This one is sort of a basic poem, which you will either give it 5 stars or below 3 stars. 

I give this poem 3 / 5

The story follows a man of “a noble descent” who calls himself William Wilson because, although denouncing his profligate past, he does not accept full blame for his actions, saying that “man was never thus … tempted before”.

The ending of this story was just brilliant. And i’m sure that a lots of you will enjoy it for sure just as much as I did. 

The whole plot of this story is also pretty amazing, but less amazing than the ending itself. 

By reading this one you will also get some good insight into the psychology of that young man and his motifs which as a whole is an incredibly good psychological study.

This one is definitely one of the best Edgar Allan Poe stories. And if you are calling yourself an Edgar Allan Poe fan and you haven’t read it yet then you must do it.

I would say that this short story is a typical Edgar Allan Poe story. Because it is chilling, have a super gothic vibe to it and its hard to stop reading it when you begin.

Need to say that this one is a very enjoyable read and also pretty fun and quick read as well. 

The writing style in this one is as you can expect from Edgar Allan Poe which of course means that it is amazing and super moody.

I give this poem 3 / 5

The story follows the young Frederick, the last of the Metzengerstein family, who carries on a long-standing feud with the Berlifitzing family. Suspected of causing a fire that kills the Berlifitzing family patriarch, Frederick becomes intrigued with a previously unnoticed and untamed horse.

The words in this short story sort of carries sort of a weight that you will find yourself enthralled at their delivery. 

This story has also the ability to grip you and won’t let you until the end of this story.

The writing style was pretty decent but still it wasn’t that good as in some of Edgar Allan Poe’s other work. 

This story might first look as a simple gothic story but you will be surprised because there’s so much more in this story.

The background of this story seems like it was inspirited by the words of an ancient prophecy.

This one is very underrated, it is actually better than much people on internet claim it is. 

This one is packed with the classic elements of Edgar Allan Poe as well as it is packed elements of gothic literature and Victorian ghost stories. Which I personally am a huge fan of. 

I give this poem 3 / 5

The poem is about a lost soul or spirits of dead. It is based on his wife’s death, Virginia Clemm. As though his wife was an important role in his life, and this unfortunately accident, affected him so deeply that after he wrote many poems about dead.

So this one is another pretty okay poem from Edgar Allan Poe.

I need to say that this might be one of the best poem from Edgar Allan Poe in my opinion. 

This poem is short as you can except from a poem. This poem is also very quick to read.

If you are like me or similar to me. You will have a fun time reading this poem and you will find this poem very interesting. 

Because of the language in this poem is so old as it is, it makes this poem to even more moody than it actually would be without that old fun English.
