The Black Cat

Edgar Allan Poe



Luis Scafati (illustrations)

«I neither expect nor ask that you believe in this savage yet homely story I am going to write. It would be madness to expect this as even my own senses reject the evidence. Nevertheless, I am not mad and I can assure you I’m not dreaming.»

So begins The Black Cat, the story that gives this volume its title. In the short stories in this collection, the everyday reveals to the reader a second, darker nature. Hallucination or reality? An ambiguous threshold to the fantastical universe of Edgar Allen Poe.
