While waiting for permanent housing, I ended up staying in the house (and the very bedroom) that Poe had been in while he served on the base.

    <body><![CDATA[I love reading Poe's stories and poems, especially when autumn rolls around.  Autumn just seems like the time for Poe's atmospheric work.  &quot;The Fall of the House of Usher&quot; is my all time favorite Poe story because of its intense atmosphere, but I enjoy everything Poe wrote and I love ownin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71256045">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The poems and stories in this book changed my life at a young age. I found myself drawn to the dreary tale of the man himself, and then fell in love with his dark writings. I loved this book so much I found a more complete copy from many many years ago, and re-read the lovely tales of woe once more....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72101812">more...</a>]]></body>

Check out &quot;The Lake&quot; for a spelling out of Poe's aesthetic &quot;for that terror was not fright, but a tremulous delight&quot;, and &quot;The Man of the Crowd&quot; for some really surprising (sorry, Poe) social...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38957054">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Edgar is a fantastic writer, because he can easily manipulate and twist words to make you think, see, and even live in his stories. the stories are great, and fun to read, over and over. You actually have to read them many, many times to fully understand the meaning behind them!]]></body>
