for being a brief biography, this was a pretty thorough look at the sad life of Poe. It read well, and was very interesting. If I were a cold case person, I'd like to dig up his bones to research what kind of medical conditions (besides alcoholism) he suffered from.
ReplyDeleteI'd definitely recommend Ackroyd's book to anyone wanting to learn about Poe.
