Since there's nothing new on Stardoll for quite a long I thought it would be nice to make a post about that amazing man. I hope you all know who he is. I'll just remind you the basics.
Edgar Allan Poe was born in 1809 and died at 7th October 1849. He was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic but he is mostly credited for the tales of mystery and macabre he wrote. He is thought to be the inventor of detective-fiction genre. He was orphaned young when his mother died after his father abandoned the family. His publishing career began humbly, with an anonymous collection of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems (1827). Poe switched his focus to prose and spent the next several years working for literary journals and periodicals. In January 1845 Poe published his poem "The Raven" to instant success. His wife died of tuberculosis two years after his publication. He began planning to produce his own journal, The Penn, though he died before it could be produced. The causes of his death is unknown but it has been variously attributed to alcohol, cholera, heart disease, rabies, suicide, brain congestion and other. However, Poe was never entirely accepted or credited by the Americans. His work has a huge impact on European authors and poets.
You can read all of his tales, poems, critics and articles about his life, here.
