DescriptionAffordable reprint of the 1887 edition. Casa Maucci lowered its production costs, notably lowering the quality of its copies, which no longer have the luxury or detail of Daniel Cortezos editions. The original hardcover binding has been replaced by a paperback with a color scene from «The Gold-Bug». The original illustrations by Fernando [Ferran] Xumetra Ragull have been reproduced in a lower quality, limited to thirty (including the allegorical portrait of Poe).
It includes the prologue «Edgardo Poe. His life and works» by Carlos Baudelaire (Charles Baudelaire).
