A Selection from Edgar Allan Poe’s writings
My father had a huge library in his private studio. It was literally packed with books of every genre and level of education. It was there where, among the other many books I read, I discovered Edgar Allan Poe’s stories. I always dreamed of editing these stories, collect those I liked in a book. Now I am doing this and I hope it will please the casual readers as much as it pleases me. Giuseppe Guarino
