"There is a distinct limit, as regards length, to all works of literary art — the limit of a single sitting".

This collection of nine essays by author, poet and critic Edgar Allan Poe comprises his most significant non-fiction works and reveals his meticulous approach to writing and his unforgiving critical eye. From sharp critiques of contemporary authors to philosophical meditations on beauty, imagination, and the nature of the universe, these essays reveal the intellect behind the macabre and the genius that shaped a literary movement.

The nine essays included here are:

- A Few Words on Secret Writing - Eureka: A Prose Poem - Maelzel's Chess Player - Morning on the Wissahiccon - The Balloon-Hoax - The Philosophy of Composition - The Philosophy of Furniture - The Poetic Principle - The Rationale of Verse

Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic known for his dark, atmospheric tales and haunting poetry. Widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in American literature, Poe helped shape the horror and science-fiction genres and is widely credited with inventing detective fiction in his 1841 short story, Murders in the Rue Morgue. Despite a life marked by personal tragedy and financial hardship, Poe produced a number of enduring classics such as The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, and The Fall of the House of Usher, and since his somewhat mysterious death, he and his writings have had a wide-ranging influence in popular culture. In 1946, the Mystery Writers of America established the annual Edgar award, which honour the best in mystery fiction, non-fiction and film. This audiobook is fully indexed.
