Spirits of the Dead

Tim Lucas

SYNOPSIS Dismissed as a gloomy and sentimental hack by American and British critics in his day, Edgar Allan Poe was nonetheless revered in France as a poete maudit and master of the short story by Charles Baudelaire, praised as a sublime poet by Mallarme, celebrated as a lucid theoretician of poet effects by Valery.
