Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was an American poet, short-story writer, and critic whose dark lyricism, musical repetition, and tales of mystery helped invent modern detective fiction and reshaped Gothic verse in English. From “The Raven” and “Annabel Lee” to “Ulalume” and “The Bells,” his poems still haunt the ear.
