BOOK DESCRIPTIONS
- The Raven and Other Selected Works, by Edgar Allan Poe
Opening with The Raven–the poem that catapulted Poe to fame–this curated volume also includes masterpieces such as The Fall of the House of Usher, The Masque of the Red Death, The Tell-Tale Heart, and The Cask of Amontillado. For more than 150 years, Poe’s stories of madness, revenge, and the supernatural have unsettled and entranced readers around the world.
- The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde
When the wealthy and beautiful Dorian Gray sees his portrait for the first time, he is seized with despair at the thought of losing his youth to time. In a reckless bargain, he pledges his soul so that the portrait will bear the marks of age and corruption while his own face remains flawless. As Dorian pursues a life of decadence and cruelty, the painting grows ever more monstrous–a haunting reminder of the cost of vanity and excess.
- Inferno: Canticle I, The Divine Comedy, by Dante Alighier
On Good Friday eve in the year 1300, a traveler (the narrator, Dante himself) loses his way and wanders into a dark mysterious wood, where he happens upon the ghost of the ancient Roman poet Virgil. Virgil promises to help Dante find his way back to the top of the mountain (Heaven), but first they must traverse the nine levels of Hell. As each concentric circle increases in horror and wickedness, the traveler encounters monsters (human and otherwise) and other fantastical creatures as he comes to understand the various sins of humanity such as lust, gluttony, heresy, and violence toward others. Transformed by his harrowing experience, Dante reaches his mountain-top destination as the sun rises on Easter morning.
- Dracula, by Bram Stoker
Told through journals, letters, newspaper clippings, and ships’ logs, Dracula follows Jonathan Harker, a young lawyer who discovers that his mysterious client, Count Dracula, is an immortal vampire with sinister plans. As Dracula’s dark influence spreads from Transylvania to England, Harker, his fiancée Mina Murray, and the formidable Professor Van Helsing are drawn into a desperate struggle to stop him.
