Edgar Allan Poe
Sometimes people say I am an unusual person. I do not know why. I think I am a perfectly normal type of person. Maybe I am not into too many mainstream fads, but I am not that different. That is why when I was assigned a research paper I immediately chose Edgar Allan Poe. People say he was an unusual person, too, but I just think he is misunderstood. You should not judge someone until you know more about them and where they come from. (If you met my family you would understand why I am this way!) As I found out more about him, I realized that we had very different lifestyles. Edgar Allan Poe led a disturbing life that shows through his unique writing style and work. Edgar Allan Poe entered the world on January 19, 1809. He was handed to two unloving parents: David Poe, Jr. and Elizabeth Arnold Poe. The Poe family resided in Boston, Massachusetts. His unfit parents were in the acting business and did not have enough time to devote love and affection to young Edgar. At the age of three, Edgar lost his father and later his mother.

The Raven is probably one of Poe's most famous pieces of work. Some of the celebrated tales contained in this unique volume include: the world's finest two detective stories - "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and "The Purloined Letter"; and three stories sure to make a reader's hair stand on end - "The Cask of Amontillado," "The Tell-Tale Heart," and "The Masque of the Red Death.
