埃德加·爱伦·坡（1809～1849）是美国文学史上一个无法忽略的名字。他是天才诗人、小说家和文学评论家，而以侦探、惊悚、悬疑小说久负盛名，是公认的侦探推理小说鼻祖、科幻小说先驱、恐怖小说大师。他是首个开掘人类意识深处幽暗隐秘领域的人，创造了浩瀚壮观的梦境、生动的幻景和恐怖的迷宫，集绮丽想象和缜密分析于一身。
爱伦·坡的人生短促，作品却泽被后世。受其影响深远的主要人物有儒勒·凡尔纳、波德莱尔、柯南·道尔、路易斯·斯蒂文森、希区柯克、蒂姆·伯顿、江户川乱步等。波德莱尔曾花费十年时间翻译出版了爱伦·坡的作品，称其是自己“文学创作的老师”“困苦一生的知交”；儒勒·凡尔纳那些经典的科幻小说，在创意来源、写作风格和许多细节上都有着浓重的爱伦·坡的印记。他开创了侦探推理小说的先河，柯南·道尔笔下的神探福尔摩斯，阿加莎·克里斯蒂笔下的大侦探波洛，人物形象及探案模式其实都是脱胎于他的侦探推理小说。另外，他的恐怖悬疑小说里甚至有了今天西方流行的“吸血鬼文学”的雏形。爱伦·坡的作品在任何时代都是独特的。
The Fall of the House of Usher and Other Tales《厄舍古屋的倒塌 爱伦坡故事集》为Signet Classics推出的英文原版，包括《厄舍古屋的倒塌》和《黑猫》《莫格街凶杀案》《陷坑与钟摆》《泄密的心》《骗术》等14篇短篇小说和一部长篇小说《阿·戈·皮姆的故事》，这些作品奇特、诡异、幽默，读来耐人回味，集中展示了爱伦·坡悬疑、惊悚小说的成就。
本书由Stephen Marlowe作序，Regina Marler后记，内容完整无删减，书本小巧便携。

“Poe was so good at writing stories that exploited the unspoken horrors of his day.” — Chuck Palahniuk

Classic tales of mystery, terror, imagination, and suspense from the celebrated master of the macabre.
This volume gathers together fourteen of Edgar Allan Poe's richest and most influential tales, including: “The Pit and the Pendulum,” his reimagining of Inquisition tortures; “The Tell-Tale Heart,” an exploration of a murderer’s madness, which Stephen King called “the best tale of inside evil ever written”; “The Fall of the House of Usher,” Poe’s tour de force about a family doomed by a grim bloodline curse; and his pioneering detective stories, “The Purloined Letter” and “The Murders in the Rue Morgue,” featuring a rational investigator with a poetic soul. Also included is Poe’s only full-length novel, Narrative of A. Gordon Pym.

With an Introduction by Stephen Marlowe and an Afterword by Regina Marler

埃德加•爱伦坡（Edgar Allan Poe，1809-1849），美国诗人、小说家、批评家。在西方被奉为侦探小说和心理小说的鼻祖，对唯美主义文艺思潮有一定的影响。著有《写作的哲学》《诗歌原理》及诗集《帖木尔》，在短篇小说创作方面成就巨大，是首个自觉地把短篇小说作为一种独立的文学体裁并提出短篇小说创作理论的作家。爱伦坡一生共写了七十篇短篇小说，收在《述异集》里。
Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1949) received a good education, first in England, then in a private school at Richmond, and later spent a year at the University of Virginia before he ran away to enlist in the army. Between 1827 and 1831, he published three volumes of poetry: Tamerlane (1827), Al Aaraaf (1829), and Poems (1831). From 1831 to 1835, he lived in Baltimore, where he began a lifelong struggle with poverty, disappointments in love, and addiction to alcohol. This last defect made it impossible for him to retain the editorial positions he later secured on magazines in Richmond, Philadelphia, and New York, despite the fact that the tales and book reviews he contributed greatly increased circulation. In May 1836, he married Virginia Clemm, a child of thirteen and the daughter of a paternal aunt. In April 1844, he moved his family to New York, and in January of the following year his literary fortunes turned when his poem “The Raven” appeared in the New York Evening News. Overnight, he became the most talked-about man of letters in America. Early in 1847 his wife died, and the year 1848 saw the end of two unhappy love affairs. He died on October 7, 1849.
 
Stephen Marlowe (1928–2008) was the author of more than fifty novels, including the internationally acclaimed Memoirs of Christopher Columbus, which was awarded the French Prix Gutenberg du Livre in 1988, and in 1997, he received a lifetime achievement award from the Private Eye Writers of America. His novel The Lighthouse at the End of the World revolves around the real and imagined life of Edgar Allan Poe.
 
Regina Marler is the author of Bloomsbury Pie: The Making of the Bloomsbury Boom, and editor of Queer Beats: How the Beats Turned America On to Sex. While still in graduate school, she was chosen by the heirs of Virginia Woolf to edit the letters of Woolf’s artist sister, Vanessa Bell, which appeared as Selected Letters of Vanessa Bell in 1993. Marler lives in San Francisco.
