After reading an 1836 newspaper account of a shipwreck and its two survivors, Edgar Allan Poe penned his only novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, the story of a stowaway on a Nantucket whaleship who finds himself enmeshed in the dark side of life at sea: mutiny, cannibalism, savagery—even death. As Jeffrey Meyers writes in his Introduction: "[Poe] remains contemporary because he appeals to basic human feelings and expresses universal themes common to all men in all languages: dreams, love, loss; grief, mourning, alienation; terror, revenge, murder; insanity, disease, and death.” Within the pages of this novel, we encounter nearly all of them.This Modern Library Paperback Classic reprints the text of the original 1838 American edition.

Compiles Poe's greatest writings: tales of fantasy, terror, death, revenge, murder, and mystery. This volume also offers letters, articles, criticism, visionary poetry, and a selection of random "opinions" on fancy and the imagination, music and poetry, intuition and sundry other topics.

"Les Aventures d'Arthur Gordon Pym de Nantucket" est un roman écrit par Edgar Allan Poe. Publié pour la première fois en 1838, il s'agit du seul roman complet de Poe. L'histoire suit les péripéties d'Arthur Gordon Pym, un jeune homme qui se joint à une expédition en mer. Le récit explore les thèmes de l'aventure, du mystère et de l'horreur, et il est parfois considéré comme un précurseur du genre du roman d'aventures maritime. L'intrigue de ce roman a influencé de nombreux écrivains ultérieurs, notamment Herman Melville, l'auteur de "Moby-Dick". "Les Aventures d'Arthur Gordon Pym de Nantucket" est également notable pour sa fin mystérieuse et controversée qui a suscité diverses interprétations et spéculations. L'oeuvre reflète le style distinctif d'Edgar Allan Poe, avec des éléments de mystère et de fascination pour l'inconnu.

" La vie d'Edgar Allan Poe n'est plus à raconter: ses derniers traducteurs français, s'inspirant des travaux définitifs de son nouvel éditeur J.H. Ingram, l'ont éloquemment vengé des calomnies trop facilement acceptées sur la foi de son ami et exécuteur testamentaire, Rufus Griswold. En dépit de ses mensonges, Edgar Poe reste pour nous et restera pour la postérité, de plus en plus admiratrice de son génie, ce que l'a si bien défini notre Baudelaire: Ce n'est pas par ses miracles matériels, qui pourtant ont fait sa renommée, qu'il lui sera donné de conquérir l'admiration des gens qui pensent, c'est par son amour du Beau, par sa connaissance des conditions harmoniques de la beauté, par sa poésie profonde et plaintive, ouvragée néanmoins, transparente et correcte comme un bijou de cristal, - par son admirable style, pur et bizarre, - serré comme les mailles d'une armure, - complaisant et minutieux, - et dont la plus légère intention sert à pousser doucement le lecteur vers un but voulu, - et enfin surtout par ce génie tout spécial, par ce tempérament unique, qui lui a permis de peindre et d'expliquer d'une manière impeccable, saisissante, terrible, l'exception dans l'ordre moral. - Diderot, pour prendre un exemple entre cent, est un auteur sanguin; Poe est l'écrivain des nerfs, et même de quelque chose de plus - et le meilleur que je connaisse. Ajoutons que ce fut une bonne fortune exceptionnelle pour Edgar Poe de rencontrer un traducteur tel que Baudelaire, si bien fait par les tendances de son propre esprit pour comprendre son génie, et le rendre dans un style qui a toutes les qualités de son modèle. "

The only novel completed by the master of the short-story form, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym relates the rollicking adventures of a boy from Nantucket as he boards a succession of ships and travels in the farthest regions of the southern hemisphere. On the way, he experiences the hardships and dangers of life at sea, surviving a violent storm, stowing away on a whaling ship and being reduced to the most extreme measures by hunger. The result is a yarn as thrilling as any of Poe's horror stories.Alongside Pym's exploits, this collection includes many celebrated tales, such as ?The Cask of Amontillado', ?The Gold Bug' and ?Hop-Frog', as well as Poe's second, unfinished novel, The Journal of Julius Rodman, all of which bear witness to the narrative genius of one of America's greatest storytellers.
