The Poe Shadow
THE body of Edgar Allan Poe has been buried in an unmarked grave. The public, the press, even Poe’s own family and friends accept the conclusion that Poe was a second-rate writer who met a disgraceful end as a drunkard. But none of this deters a young Baltimore lawyer named Quentin Clark.
Historically, it is interesting. I know of Poe but not well. I have not thoroughly studied his works or his life for that matter but somehow the book is a bit dragging. If not for the book challenge, I would have forgotten I have it. It was still a good read and a good book.
