The other side of Poe
Edgar Allan Poe is best known for his wonderful mystical stories and poems like “The Mask of Red Death” or “The Raven”.
However, he was not so an ecstatic and gloomy person as it may seem after reading his mystiries. Poe was a man of real life in general, and of writer’s life in particular: yes, those publishers, agents, fans, envious competitors, and critics… His humour and satire stories show us the other side of the great mystery master.
