Classic Tales of Horror

Fue un regalo y a la persona le encantó mucho es muy bonito y tiene los colores muy intensos y el tamaño de la letra es la adecuada

Encardenação em couro, cores vivas e brilhantes. As letras são muito pequenas e não há figuras por dentro, mas fica belíssimo na estante

I decided to read at least one selection of spooky fiction or poetry every day in October, and this anthology is perfect. (I also own Edgar Allan Poe's Collected Works, Grimm's Fairy Tales and Robert Frost's poetry, plus the flexibound Washington Irving from this publisher.) I'm a big fan of Canterbury Classics, and this anthology doesn't disappoint. The quality leather cover is attractive and feels nice. It contains a well-curated selection of tales from a variety of 19th & 20th century American and European authors, including a couple of female authors. (Be sure to read "Afterward" by Edith Wharton and Charlotte Gilman Perkins' "The Yellow Wallpaper".) Printing is clear and a comfortable size to read, on ivory paper that is not too thin, and there is a ribbon page marker. The table of contents includes the date each selection was first published. If you're looking to sample the "best of" classic gothic horror, this book is definitely the way to do it. Well worth the price!

.. Arrived in optimal conditions, much before I was expecting..Thanks Amazon!

The selected short stories are top-notch. Poe, Lovecraft, Henry James, ... All the best horror authors are included in this anthology.
