«Edgar Allan Poe's Tales of Mystery and Madness» is the illustrated anthology of horror tales by Edgar Allan Poe, in hardcover (144 pages, in English).
It brings together four horror tales: «The Black Cat», «The Masque of the Red Death», «Hop-Frog» and «The Fall of the House of Usher». A cat drives its owner to crime, plague breaks out at a masked ball, a dwarf jester plots his revenge and a cursed house drags down its inhabitants. Gris Grimly's illustrations reinforce the macabre atmosphere.
This edition, published in 2004 by Atheneum Books for Young Readers, corresponds to the «Repackage ed.» and includes Gris Grimly's illustrations.
Aimed at young readers aged 11 to 14 and at those approaching Poe's horror for the first time.
