"The life of American writer Edgar Allan Poe was characterized by a dramatic series of successes and failures, breakdowns and recoveries, personal gains and hopes dashed through, despite which he created some of the finest literature the world has ever known. Over time his works have influenced such major creative forces as the French poets Charles Baudelaire and Andre Gide, film~maker D.W. Griffith and modern literary legend Allen Ginsberg. Best known for his poems and short fiction, Poe perfected the psychological thriller, invented the detective story, and rarely missed transporting the reader to his own supernal realm. He has also been hailed posthumously as one of the finest literary critics of the nineteenth century. In Edgar Allan Poe: Complete Tales and Poems fans may indulge in all of Poe's most imaginative short~stories, including The Fall of the House of Usher, The Murders in Rue Morgue, The Tell~ Tale Heart, Ligeia and Ms. In A Bottle. His complete early and miscellaneous poetic masterpieces are also here, including The Raven, Ulalume, Annabel Lee, Tamerlane, as well as select reviews and narratives.". …

Cloth, 8vo, 24 cm, 398 pp, ills. From the blurb: "During a long career in publishing Frank Herrmann had the good fortune to work for firms who published T S Eliot, Evelyn Waugh, Ernest Shepard (the illustrator of A A Milne's books), Beatrix Potter and Mrs Beeton, and a host of other famous figures in the writing world. He took to writing himself and, after publishing a long history of art collecting in England, was asked to compile the history of Sotheby's, the auction house. Subsequently he became first, an adviser and, later, director of that firms overseas operations. A love of the saleroom led him to start an auction house of his own which specialised only in books and literary material. His Bloomsbury Book Auctions has become a major player in the London auction world and continues to thrive. In his triple rôle as author, publisher and auctioneer, Frank Herrmann had unrivalled opportunities to observe the workings of the literary world and the book trade at close quarters and in these memoirs he gives a remarkably intimate picture of the editorial process at work and stresses the continuing importance of authorship. His narrative is interspersed with delightful interludes about his many other interests and activities. These include life with the Giant Alexander, the children's book character he created ; researching in archives and later selling them; being the owner of a monumental castle in Franconia, and having to resolve the problems brought about by a large herd of wild boar in East Germany. Low Profile is an altogether unusual book in a class of its own." Fine in Fine dustwrapper.…
