Originally published in Graham’s Magazine in 1841, The Murders in the Rue Morgue is considered to be the first classic tale of detection that gave birth to the genre of crime fiction which we know and love today.It introduced the sleuth C. Auguste Dupin and this «locked room» puzzle was followed by two more adventures for Monsieur Dupin: The Mystery of Marie Roget and The Purloined Letter. In addition, readers can enjoy an early Poe detective story, Thou Art the Man!, which seeks to uncover the murderer of the wealthy Barnabas Shuttleworthy, and The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall, the tale of his adventure to reach the moon in a revolutionary new balloon!
