Few have crafted stories as haunting as those by Edgar Allan
Poe. Collected here to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Poe's
birth are sixteen of his best tales accompanied by twenty essays
from beloved authors, including T. Jefferson Parker, Lawrence
Block, Sara Paretsky, and Joseph Wambaugh, among others, on how
Poe has changed their life and work.
Michael Connelly recounts the inspiration he drew from Poe's
poetry while researching one of his books. Stephen King reflects
on Poe's insight into humanity's dark side in “The Genius of
‘The Tell-Tale Heart.’”an Burke recalls her childhood terror
during late-night reading sessions. Tess Gerritsen, Nelson
DeMille, and others remember the classic B-movie adaptations of
Poe's tales. And in “The Thief,” Laurie R. King complains about
how Poe stole all the good ideas...or maybe he just thought of
them first.
Powerful and timeless, In the Shadow of the Master is a
celebration of one of the greatest literary minds of all time.
