This book is the exploration by a distinguished American poet and critic of his own lifelong fascination with the work of Edgar Allan Poe. Delving into the clues to Poe's achievement--as poet, as aesthetician, as inventor of science fiction and the mystery tale, as explorer of the human soul--Daniel Hoffman builds a sympathetic case for this tormented author, baring the secret of his 'inescapable truths' and the hold they have on his readers.
