    • READ BY DAVID SOUL Duration: 2 hours 28 minutes Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) was an American poet, writer, editor and literary critic. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe’s full-blooded Gothic style influenced generations of writers, filmmakers and musicians, from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Charles Baudelaire to Roger Corman and Lou Reed. The five tales collected here range from the famous to the obscure, but each displays Poe's unique sense of the macabre and his love for the baroque. A victim of the Inquisition finds himself in a nightmarish torture chamber, a castle is besieged by plague, a man becomes obsessed by the evil eye of his fellow lodger, a mesmerist suspends a man's life at the point of death and a jester takes his revenge on his cruel employers.

    • Oscar Classici - 72: Racconti di enigmi

      • 349pagine
      • 13 ore di lettura

      Nei Racconti di enigmi, che Poe definisce racconti di raziocinio, egli libera la sua maestria di narratore nel costruire intrecci che solo una lucida logica è in grado di decifrare. In questa raccolta spiccano Gli assassinii della Rue Morgue, dove intuizione e concatenazione deduttiva e induttiva portano alla soluzione del racconto, non privo di spunti macabri e orripilanti; Lo scarabeo d'oro, dove un intreccio di motivi, ora di mistero ora di raziocinio, tra oscuri accadimenti e illuminazioni razionali, viene risolto risolvendo un crittogramma e l'enigma che ne scaturisce; o, infine, La lettera rubata, dove il detective-poeta Dupin risolve un caso che si rivela estremamente semplice non appena si porta sul piano delle somiglianze analogiche.
