  <default_description>&lt;i&gt;Nevermore&lt;/i&gt; brings one of America&#8217;s most enigmatic writers to the attention of a new generation of children. This intriguing photobiography examines the life and times of the author and poet who would have a huge influence on future generations of writers, poets, artists, and even songwriters. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Poe pioneered the psychological horror story, the detective story, and the emerging genre of science fiction. Through his dark tales and unforgettable verse, as well as his literary criticism, he made major contributions to the development of the modern short story and modern poetry in America. Thanks to the translations of the French writer Charles Baudelaire, Poe also gained a wide audience throughout Europe. His work influenced not only writers, but also avant-garde artists, who saw in him a kindred soul.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Karen Lange&#8217;s gripping narrative combines with the book&#8217;s vivid illustrations of Poe&#8217;s various haunts to create an atmospheric account of America&#8217;s most famous Romantic writer. The story shifts from his birth in Boston to Richmond, from Hampton Roads to Philadelphia, from New York City to his mysterious death in Baltimore. &lt;i&gt;Nevermore&lt;/i&gt; is a rich appreciation of an American master, whose macabre tales of mystery took shape in tandem with his own strange and ultimately tragic life story.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I couldn't put this one down.  I knew some of this information before, but thought that this was nicely done and accessible for a young audience, especially in view of the difficult issues in Poe's life. This biography made me want to read more about Poe and more of his work.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Another great title in the NG Photobiography series.  Packed with information, beautifully laid out, and intriguing!  Poe was a brilliant, tortured soul who had very little kindness in his life.  His poetry is gorgeous. Try with teens who need to read a biography.  ]]></body>
