About The Raven and The Monkey’s Paw: Classics of Horror and Suspense

The third in the Modern Library’s series of original compilations, The Raven and the Monkey’s Paw is a collection of classic tales and poems to engage our fear-seeking senses. The beauty of these stories and poems lies in their readability: ideal for sharing aloud around the campfire or for a quick, thrilling dip . . . under the covers with a flashlight. The writing itself sends as many awe-inspired shivers down the spine as do the ghosts and goblins on these pages.Edgar Allan Poe, the master of the horror story and the chiming lyric poem, opens the volume with his best-loved stories: and “The Murders in the Rue Morgue, and ” and “The Black Cat, and ” and “The Fall of the House of Usher, and ” and “The Pit and the Pendulum, and ” and “The Premature Burial, and ” and “The Tell-Tale Heart, and ” and “Berenice, and ” and and “Ligeia. and ” Every bit as chilling now as on the day they were written, these tales retain their power to stir the reader again and again. Poe, who was as well known for his poems as for his stories, is also represented by such verse standards as and “The Raven, and ” and “Lenore, and ” and “To Helen, and ” and “Ulalume, and ” and and “Annabel Lee, and ” among others.Numerous other practitioners of the supernatural story are included: Edith Wharton, with her gripping and “Afterward and “; Charles Dickens and his famed ghost story and “The Signalman and “; W. W. Jacobs, with this compilation’s inspiration, and “The Monkey’s Paw. and ” Also here are Saki’s engrossing and “Sredni Vashtar and “; O. Henry’s story of love lost and hopes dashed, and “The Furnished Room and “; Wilkie Collins’s lively and “A Terribly Strange Bed and “; and and “The Boarded Window, and ” Ambrose Bierce’s tale of the bizarre. A year-round collection for reading aloud–and frightening your friends–The Raven and the Monkey’s Paw will gratify all manner of thrill-seekers.The Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library’s seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House redesigned the series, restoring as its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world’s best books, at the best prices.
