Born in Boston in 1809 to itinerant actors, Poe was orphaned as an infant and sent to live with a Richmond merchant, John Allan. Allan sent him to the University of Virginia in 1826, but Poe withdrew because of gambling debts. In 1830, with his first book of poems already published, he entered West Point but was dishonorably discharged the next year. In 1835 Poe was chosen editor of the \u003ci\u003eSouthern Literary Messenger\u003c\/i\u003e. Poe was already established as an author when, in 1845, the publication of \"The Raven\" made him famous. He began to lecture, engaged in a celebrated feud with Longfellow, and became sole proprietor of his own magazine, \u003ci\u003eBroadway Journal\u003c\/i\u003e. But in 1846 the magazine went bankrupt, and in 1847, after years of suffering, Poe's wife died of consumption. His ill health and drinking worsened.

Auguste Dupin. Introducing to literature the concept of applying reason to solving crime, these tales brought Poe fame and fortune. Years later, Dorothy Sayers would describe \"The Murders in the Rue Morgue\" as \"almost a complete manual of detective theory and practice.\" Indeed, Poe's short mysteries inspired the creation of countless literary sleuths, among them Sherlock Holmes. Today, the unique Dupin stories still stand out as utterly engrossing page-turners. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eIncludes a Modern Library Reading Group Guide\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edgar Allan Poe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern Library\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.22w x 0.36d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780679643425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMatthew Pearl\u003c\/b\u003e is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eThe Dante Club, The Poe Shadow, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Last Dickens, The Technologists, The Last Bookaneer, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Dante Chamber, \u003c\/i\u003e and the editor of the Modern Library editions of Dante's \u003ci\u003eInferno\u003c\/i\u003e (translated by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow) and Edgar Allan Poe's \u003ci\u003eThe Murders in the Rue Morgue: The Dupin Tales\u003c\/i\u003e.

Orphaned when he was not yet three, Poe was taken in by John and Frances Allan of Richmond, Virginia. After a major falling-out with his foster father in 1827, Poe left Richmond for Boston, where he arranged for the publication of his first book of poetry, \u003ci\u003eTamerlane and Other Poems\u003c\/i\u003e. He published two additional books of poetry--\u003ci\u003eAl Aaraaf, Tamerlane, and Minor Poems\u003c\/i\u003e (1829) and \u003ci\u003ePoems \u003c\/i\u003e(1831)--and began to publish short stories and book reviews, gaining an editorial position at the Southern Literary Messenger in Richmond in 1835. Perhaps already privately married to his thirteen-year-old cousin Virginia Clemm, he married her publicly in Mary 1836. By this time he had begun work on his novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym\u003c\/i\u003e, early chapters of which were published in the Messenger of January and February 1837. But on January 3, 1837, Poe lost his job (very likely owing to his drinking), and he moved to New York City, where he completed the book. \u003ci\u003ePym\u003c\/i\u003e was published by Harper \u0026amp; Brothers on July 30th, 1838. Poe had by then moved to Philadelphia, where he came to serve as the editor for two periodicals and where he published a collection of short stories, \u003ci\u003eTales of the Grotesque and Arabesque\u003c\/i\u003e (1840), as well as many additional stories, including the prize-winning \"The Gold Bug\" and the first modern detective story, \"The Murders in the Rue Morgue\". However, his wife developed tuberculosis. Returning to New York in 1844, Poe soon reached the peak of his fame with the publication of \"The Raven\" in 1945. That year also saw the publication of both \u003ci\u003eTales \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Raven and Other Poems\u003c\/i\u003e--but Poe's drinking led to the failure of his weekly, the \u003ci\u003eBroadway Journal\u003c\/i\u003e. Settling in Fordham, Poe continued to write and to care for Virginia, who died in January 1847. In his final years, Poe wrote some of his most celebrated poetry, including \"The Bells\", \"Eldorado\", and \"Annabel Lee\". On October 7th, 1849 Edgar Allan Poe died in Baltimore. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e GUILLERMO DEL TORO\u003c\/b\u003e is a Mexican director, producer, screenwriter, novelist, and designer.
