Just like its predecessor, this story – which also features C. Auguste Dupin, the French detective who solved the Rue Morgue case – is one of the earliest examples of the real-crime murder mystery, and is justly regarded as one of the highest points of the entire genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside ‘Marie Rogêt’, this volume, which completes Alma’s edition of Edgar Allan Poe’s fiction works, includes a wide variety of tales, spanning from his very early beginnings as a writer, with light-hearted skits such as ‘The Duc de l’Omelette’ and ‘Bon-Bon’, to rollicking adventure stories, fables, dialogues between spirits and parodies such as ‘Mellonta Tauta’ and ‘X-ing a Paragrab’, which he penned only a few months before his premature death in 1849. Taken together, they consolidate Poe’s reputation as one of the greatest and most eclectic storytellers of all time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66733646970995,"sku":"9781847499417","price":575.0,"currency_code":"PHP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/1041\/4963\/files\/9781847499417-02.jpg?v=1790666145","url":"https:\/\/nationalbookstore.com\/products\/alma-classics-the-mystery-of-marie-rogt-by-edgar-allan-poe-trade-paperback","provider":"National Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
