This collection brings together ten stories by Edgar Allan Poe. We enter the House of Usher, an old mansion that cracks along with the family who live in it. We attend the masked ball of Prince Prospero, shut away in his abbey while the Red Death ravages the land, and we listen to a murderer swear that he is not mad.
Here too is the first case of the Chevalier Dupin: with this character, Poe invented the detective story, long before Sherlock Holmes.
With the translation always in front of you, each story can be read in one sitting in the language you are learning.
