Matthew Pearl is a graduate of Harvard University and Yale Law School and has taught literature at Harvard and at Emerson College. He is the New York Times bestselling author of The Dante Club and editor of the Modern Library’s Longfellow translation of Dante's Inferno. His latest novel is The Poe Shadow.
Includes The Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Mystery of Marie Rogêt, and The Purloined Letter
Between 1841 and 1844, Edgar Allan Poe invented the genre of detective fiction with three mesmerizing stories of a young French eccentric named C. Auguste Dupin. Introducing to literature the concept of applying reason to solving crime, these tales brought Poe fame and fortune to live on. Years later, Dorothy Sayers would describe “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” as “almost a complete manual of detective theory and practice.” Indeed, Poe’s short mysteries inspired the creation of countless literary sleuths, among them Sherlock Holmes. Today, the Dupin stories still stand out as unique, utterly engrossing page-turners.
This Modern Library edition reproduces the definitive texts of the three tales. It includes an enlightening Introduction by novelist Matthew Pearl and an Appendix, “The Earliest Detectives.”

评分這個也是關於locked room mystery
评分三篇整體來說都很平庸。第二篇先是陳列各種猜測,再由Dupin一個一個推翻,實在是太死闆瞭,作案手法其實不錯,卻是最無趣的一篇。第三篇中Prefect和兩人的對話其實讓小說生動很多,但到瞭推理的環節愛倫坡又犯瞭絮絮叨叨的老毛病。隻能當作早期推理小說傢對推理小說的探索來讀。
