I’ve read the short stories truncated here and only read the one poem “The Raven,” but all the selected works are very well chosen. The artwork reflects the feeling of each story/poem very well. I was thoroughly creeped out by several of the stories and the imagery did a lot to elicit these feelings. ( ) Original de: El Blog del Gato - El Extraño Gato del Cuento Las ilustraciones de Gareth Hinds son bastante buenas, les dan vida y emoción extra a las historias, tanto así que algunas se me hicieron difícil de leer porque me generaban ansiedad, o sea, The Pit and the Pendulum fue demasiado para mí. Pero tengo que aceptar que Edgar Allan Poe no fue hecho para alguien como yo Twitter • Tumblr • Tvtime • Goodreads • Instagram • Blog Gorgeously illustrated with vivid, and sometimes scary, images that bring Poe’s dark tales to life! I really liked the “The Poe Checklist” at the beginning of the book, with keys to the motifs that the author uses, found again at the bottoms of the title pages of each tale. Great tool for new readers! I'd say that all of the selections are amongst my favorite of Poe's (except for "The Bells", which I've never liked), and they way they are presented in this book gave me new perspectives of my old favorites! I really liked that Poe himself is the man in on the pages of "The Raven"! Very cool! Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
It is true that I am nervous. But why will you say that I am mad? In stories and poems written well over a century ago, Edgar Allan Poe established himself as the original American master of gothic horror. Now, acclaimed artist-adapter Gareth Hinds translates Poe's dark genius into the graphic novel format for Poe fans new and old. Blood, bones, and flickering firelight set the mood for Hinds's vision of Poe's macabre and tragic worlds. In "The Cask of Amontillado," a man takes a terrifying revenge on a friend who has insulted him. In "The Masque of the Red Death," a prince hosts a party in his abbey stronghold while plague spreads outside. A prisoner finds himself in the sadistic clutches of the Spanish Inquisition in "The Pit and the Pendulum," and in "The Telltale Heart," a single milky eye incites madness and murder. Alongside the tales are visual interpretations of three iconic poems: "The Raven," "The Bells," and Poe's poignant elegy to lost love, "Annabel Lee." Taken together, these seven concise graphic narratives both amplify and honor a timeless legacy.--Jacket flap.
A volume of graphic novel renderings of some of Edgar Allan Poe's best-known works includes "The Cask of Amontillado," "The Tell-Tale Heart" and "The Raven." No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
