APOLLO CLASSICSEnter, if you dare, into the intoxicating world of The Works of Edgar Allan Poe, Volume II, a literary labyrinth where shadows stretch long and the air hums with dread. Here, Poe doesn’t merely tell stories—he beckons you into a realm where terror takes on a strangely seductive beauty. This volume is a gallery of his finest grotesqueries: from the sinister unraveling of "The Fall of the House of Usher" to the creeping madness of "The Tell-Tale Heart."There’s delight in every dark corner. "The Black Cat" claws at your conscience, while "The Masque of the Red Death" swirls in vivid, haunting imagery, a dance macabre that will leave you breathless. And just when you think you’ve found your footing, "The Cask of Amontillado" and "The Pit and the Pendulum" deliver a chilling plunge into revenge and fear.Whether you come for the intellectual charm of "The Purloined Letter" or to lose yourself in the eerie beauty of "Eleonora," this collection offers something for everyone with a taste for the peculiar, the psychological, and the profoundly unnerving. Poe's genius doesn’t just lie in his ability to terrify—oh no, it’s his mastery in making us question everything we hold rational.

Our ‘Classics’ are made and put together whenever you place an order. This is great because it saves ink, paper and over production and this in turn is fantastic news for sustainability’s sake. Being put together when there is demand means that our ‘Classics’ books may take a little longer to reach you. Please do keep this in mind when ordering one of our 'Classics'. We thank you (and the planet does, too!) and happy reading!
