　　Edgar Allan Poe      Edgar Allan Poe (19 January 1809-7 October 1849) was an American writer, editor, and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. Widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature       Poe and his works influenced literature in the United States and around the world, as well as in specialized fields, such as cosmology and cryptography. Poe and his work appear throughout popular culture in literature, music, films, and television. A number of his homes are dedicated museums today. The Mystery Writers of America present an annual award known as the Edgar Award for distinguished work in the mystery genre.

　　在这个世界上，有一个伟大的作家，对爱与恨有着自己独特的理解方式，他的这种理解方式直接影响了20世纪整个心理学界、哲学界等。这个作家就是美国19世纪*伟大的作家爱伦·坡。
　　爱伦·坡的小说跌宕起伏，往往一读进去，就有不可自拔的感觉，不把整个小说读完，就不能专心致志地去做别的事情似的。有人说，读爱伦·坡要有得一场大病的准备，这是不无道理的，因为爱伦·坡的深刻，更因为爱伦·坡对人性的把握。
