Biografía del autor

Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) fue uno de los grandes genios de la literatura universal. Sus cuentos, a menudo teñidos de un terror psicológico sin igual, exploraron obsesiones, miedos y lo sobrenatural con un estilo lírico y preciso que marcó a generaciones. Pionero del género detectivesco con su inolvidable Auguste Dupin, Poe también dejó huella como poeta, autor de versos tan célebres como El cuervo, que aún resuena en la cultura popular. Su vida, breve y turbulenta, alimentó la leyenda de un escritor maldito y romántico, pero su obra trasciende cualquier anécdota personal: es un viaje fascinante a los abismos del alma y una invitación perpetua a cruzar las fronteras de la realidad.
