What are good books by Edgar Allan Poe?

Read his collected poems and tales----They're all great. He was indeed a depressed, and drug(opium) addicted genius. His wife died at an early age of consumption(tuberculosis)--Read-- "Annabel Lee" They say there is a very fine line between genius and insanity----with Poe you get a little bit of both, in just the right measure. Read or listen to a recording of "the Bells"----to see his mastery of word usage.----------Hope this helps--------------------------william
