"If you are a Poe scholar, this volume merits a place not just on your bookshelf (as reviewers often say) but waiting by your bedside or open on your desk. It should inspire fresh readings of familiar texts. ... I recommend this volume highly. Happy exploring!" (Susan Elizabeth Sweeney, Poe Studies, Vol. 52, 2019)
