Review # 1 was written on 2018-09-09 00:00:00 Mike D. Wiethorn This is a good collection of essays discussing Poe's writing. Harold Bloom's introduction is particularly interesting (and funny, though not intentionally, I think) because Bloom doesn't like Poe's work much (if at all) but at the same time says frankly that Poe is inescapable because he has influenced so much that came after him. The other writers assembled on the pages address aspects of Poe's writing with a great deal of thought.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-08-17 00:00:00 Adam Miller Not as good as I'd hoped. Mostly a collection of excerpts from Chandler's fiction paired with photos of L.A. taken in the 80s. I found it hilarious that the photo of Mann's (Chinese Theater) was taken when "Police Academy 2" was playing. I would have thought they'd include at least a few 40s photos.
