Favorite Poe Work?

[EBunbury]

What's your favorite work by Edgar Allen Poe?

I'll start. Much as I love "The Raven" (and all it's parodies), my favorite is "The Domain of Arnheim".

Ooooooo, good topic.


"The Case Of M. Valdemar". I remember reading that in college (for pleasure, not for a class) and was fascinated by it, and still am.

And in the number 2 spot... "The Premature Burial".

The Raven & The Cask of Amantiado. I read The Cask when I was in high school and fell in love with it. The Raven speaks for itself, of course.

Fall of the House of Usher
Pit and the Pendulum
Descent into the Maelstrom
Purloined Letter (reminds me of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's)

I like the author in general.
