Tales of the Grotesque & Arabesque is Edgar Allan Poe's first published collection of short stories. It contains some of his most celebrated works, such as The Fall of the House of Usher, MS. Found in a Bottle and Berenice, as well as some of his most obscure and hilarious stories, such as Why the Little Frenchman Wears His Arm in a Sling and Bon-Bon. This edition of Poe's Tales of the Grotesque & Arabesque faithfully recreates the same order and content of Poe's original collection, first published in 1840.
