Books with title Edgar, Allan, Poe, the Tell-Tale Beets

Mother has one unbreakable rule: "No dessert until you finish your dinner." But how can Edgar, Allan, and Poe possibly clear their plates when there are Brussels sprouts to be swallowed, liver to be chewed and, worst of all, beets to be bitten? There must be a way to get rid of dinner without having to gobble up this foul food. Perhaps the loose floorboard under Poe's chair is the answer! This clever twist on Edgar Allan Poe's The Beating of the Tell-Tale Heart will resonate with anyone who has ever wished that certain foods could just disappear.

A teacher of the strange; one of the most famous American writers of Romanticism.Every day more people discover it, while others rush to rediscover it. His texts provoke an irresistible attraction. In them we find talking crows, spirits of dead people and living people who seem dead. Shadows, destruction, nostalgia and love. In a way, the main character that inspired his work was himself."My life has been whim, drive, passion, longing for loneliness, mockery of the things of this world," he wrote. His misfit existence was at times as chilling as the horror texts he wrote. Poe's poetry is considered at a high level as his prose where woman, death and love flow as tragedy.“Poe has created a special, different genre, which comes only from himself, and which he took away when he died the secret. He can be called Master of the School of the Strange, for he has pushed back the limits of the impossible. ”- Jules Verne, Musée des familles, 1864

"The Tell-Tale Heart" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe first published in 1843. It follows an unnamed narrator who insists on his sanity after murdering an old man with a "vulture eye". The murder is carefully calculated, and the murderer hides the body by cutting it into pieces and hiding it under the floorboards. Ultimately the narrator's guilt manifests itself in the hallucination that the man's heart is still beating under the floorboards.It is unclear what relationship, if any, the old man and his murderer share. It has been suggested that the old man is a father figure or, perhaps, that his vulture eye represents some sort of veiled secret. The ambiguity and lack of details about the two main characters stand in stark contrast to the specific plot details leading up to the murder.The story was first published in James Russell Lowell's The Pioneer in January 1843. "The Tell-Tale Heart" is widely considered a classic of the Gothic fiction genre and one of Poe's most famous short stories.
