Best known for his poems
and short fiction, Edgar Allan Poe deserves more credit than any other
writer for the transformation of the short story from anecdote to art.

thriller. He also produced some of the most influential literary criticism
of his time--important theoretical statements on poetry and the short story--and
has had a worldwide influence on literature. Below are some of my favorite
of his works:
