Spiral into a dimly lit world, down streets lined with madmen and their black deeds, through the cold twists of the catacombs, and into rooms where secrets dwell. From the tortured mind of Edgar Allan Poe, these three tales, «You are the man”, “The Stolen Letter, » and «The Pit and the Pendulum”, speak to the hidden places inside us all. Capturing the mist and shadows rising from the stories are illustrations by prominent artist Per. Angular and dark, his work heightens the Gothic terror that is Poe’s trademark and creates windows into Poe’s world.
