Praise for HIS HIDEOUS HEART: “A superb collection [that] brims over with fierce delight and uncanny invention; the stories here vary in their effect nearly as much as Poe’s do. And if you haven’t read Poe before, His Hideous Heart works equally well as an introduction, a tribute and a loving critique.” --The New York Times Book Review
“Presenting 13 reinterpretations of Poe’s works alongside the originals, this enticing anthology offers an accessible, multifaceted reading experience for fans old and new...A refreshing assortment of diverse voices and contemporary themes ensures there’s something for everyone.” --Publishers Weekly, starred review
