The Complete Poetry of Edgar Allan Poe Signet Classics Edgar Allan Poe Jay Parini April Bernard 9780451531056 Books Reviews

• Poems only, no tales as advertised. Why did the publisher choose such a misleading title? You're only getting half of what you paid for but at full price.
• Absolutely in love with this book! I got the Barnes Noble leatherbound edition. It's a beautiful and well made book with metallic silver edged pages and a red ribbon page marker. All the poems and tales I was hoping for, and then some. All in all a little over 1000 pages. I could go on...but time to dive in! 📖
• I feel rather cheated. Despite the title and boastful description on this particular format, not a single tale is included. The formatting is no different than if it was merely a paper copy of a webpage, with what seem to have been hyperlinks to the notes and table of contents.
  I ordered the paperback, which is pictured here on , and expected a complete collection; instead, I only got his poetry and a few works of prose, without any short stories or "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket".
  
  If you order, I caution you not to order the paperback version, as it appears to be the only one with this problem judging by reviews.
• One of the best collections of Edgar Allen Poe out there. This is a good value all around. Has a few stories that are hard to find and I appreciate the order of the book. The synopsis of his life and times in the beginning really helps the reader get into the strange time and place in American history that Edgar Allen Poe lived in.
• This edition collects all of Poe's fiction and poetry in a single volume, including The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Pit and the Pendulum,." "The Raven," "Annabel Lee," the full-length novel "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket", and much more.
  
  Yet this book contains no tales and only poems, this is such a misleading title and very unfair to people purchasing this book.
• Can't believe I fell for the title of this book without looking at the reviews! It is just the poems, even though the title says it includes the complete tales and poems. Glad I just got the kindle and I didn't pay the full price for the book.
• Chose this book to read for my high school class because I love Poe's work. The book pages aren't numbered, there are these strange question marks in boxes everywhere. It seems as if the storied were taken from a computer and printed out. The book is really cheaply made and the quality is horrible. I would send it back and get a different copy but my homework is due in two days...
• I had forgotten how beautiful and lyrical E.A.Poe's poetry is,
  along with with his compelling tales.
  
  And here are the requisite extra words to fulfill the dumb word quota. Sometimes one word with no title is more than adequate. I hardly ever leave reviews because of the word and title rules. Which is a shame because at least giving stars should be counted for the author's work.
  
  That said, with the complete collection you can dip in and out on a whim. Everyone (yes, everyone) should give Poe a try.
