Informazioni su questo ebook

A nameless narrator visits the decaying mansion of his childhood friend, Roderick Usher. As he witnesses the eerie decline of both the house and its inhabitants, he becomes entangled in a web of madness, fear, and supernatural occurrences.

»The Fall of the House of Usher«, published 1839, remains a cornerstone of Gothic literature. Poe's masterful use of atmosphere and symbolism creates a haunting portrayal of psychological terror and existential dread. Its influence can be seen in later works of horror fiction and the exploration of the human psyche in modern literature, ensuring its enduring relevance.
