- Edgar Allan Poe (born Edgar Poe; January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, editor, and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre, and is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction.
Poe was born in Boston, Massachusetts, the second child of itinerant actors David and Elizabeth “Eliza” Poe. His father abandoned the family in 1810, and his mother died the following year. Poe was taken into the foster care of John Allan, a Virginia tobacco farmer, and Frances Allan of Richmond, Virginia. As Edgar Allan Poe, he distinguished himself at the University of Virginia but fell into debt from gambling. His stepfather’s disapproval shattered their relationship, and Poe left home to seek his fortune.
Poe married his 13-year-old cousin, Virginia Clemm, in 1836; she died of tuberculosis in 1847. Despite his prolific activities - journalism, poetry, lecturing, short stories, publishing, criticism, and experimentation with fictional genres, including the detective novel which he virtually invented with the publication of “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” (1841) – he received scant recognition for his efforts until the publication of “The Raven” (1845). The poem’s instant popularity gave him a new visibility in literary circles, but his personal situation remained desperate: poverty, illness, drink and the physical decline. In 1849, he was found sick, injured and semi-conscious in a Baltimore tavern. Taken to hospital, he lingered four days but never recovered. Poe died in Baltimore on October 7, 1849, at age 40. The cause of his death is unknown and has been variously attributed to disease, alcoholism, substance abuse, suicide, and other causes.
Poe was one of the most original writers in the history of American letters – a genius who, thanks to his dire reputation, was tragically misunderstood during his lifetime. When Baudelaire enthusiastically translated his work, Poe found a wider audience in Europe and became not only an enormous influence on modern French literature, but also on the acclaimed work of writers such as Dostoevsky, Conan Doyle, and Jules Verne.

From Wikipedia:
In 1948, NBC University Theater aired an adaptation starring Adolphe Menjou as C. Auguste Dupin.[19]
"The Purloined Letter" was adapted in an episode of the 1950s television series Suspense, but the events were portrayed in a linear fashion.
In 1995, the story was adapted for an episode of the children's television program Wishbone. The episode was titled "The Pawloined Paper".
In 2013 a theatrical adaptation of the story by Lance Tait was published. Ava Caridad wrote that "The Purloined Letter...lends itself well to a one-act play."[20]
SERIES: No
MAIN CHARACTERS: (Not comprehensive)

Monsieur G____ - Prefect of the Parisian police
SUMMARY/ EVALUATION:
How I picked it. It was mentioned a few times in Book 5 of the Stoker and Holmes series by Colleen Gleason, and I couldn’t recall if I’d ever read it. Neither could Don, so we wanted to listen to it. After listening to it, I can safely say that it wasn’t familiar to me.
What it was about: The person telling the story is visiting a friend, C. Auguste Dupin, and discussing a murder case, when a prefect arrives from the Parisian police to run his most recent mystery by Dupin. The prefect tells his story while the two listen and Dupin occasionally asks questions. The prefect leaves and returns another day, while our visitor is there. After Dupin inquires of the status of the previous case from the prior visit the prefect confesses he got no further in solving it. Dupin eventually reveals that he has solved it and after the prefect leaves, he explains how to his visitor.
What I thought: I had remembered Poe to write horror and was surprised at this depth of logic and the philosophical bent. I had not known he was considered the inventor of the detective genre. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

SAMPLE QUOTATION:
From Chapter 1,
“ At Paris, just after dark one gusty evening in the autumn of 18—, I was enjoying the twofold luxury of meditation and a meerschaum, in company with my friend C. Auguste Dupin, in his little back library, or book closet, au troisième, No. 33, Rue Dunôt, Faubourg St. Germain. For one hour at least we had maintained a profound silence; while each, to any casual observer, might have seemed intently and exclusively occupied with the curling eddies of smoke that oppressed the atmosphere of the chamber. For myself, however, I was mentally discussing certain topics which had formed matter for conversation between us at an earlier period of the evening; I mean the affair of the Rue Morgue, and the mystery attending the murder of Marie Rogêt. I looked upon it, therefore, as something of a coincidence, when the door of our apartment was thrown open and admitted our old acquaintance, Monsieur G——, the Prefect of the Parisian police.
We gave him a hearty welcome; for there was nearly half as much of the entertaining as of the contemptible about the man, and we had not seen him for several years. We had been sitting in the dark, and Dupin now arose for the purpose of lighting a lamp, but sat down again, without doing so, upon G——' s saying that he had called to consult us, or rather to ask the opinion of my friend, about some official business which had occasioned a great deal of trouble.
"If it is any point requiring reflection," observed Dupin, as he forebore to enkindle the wick, "we shall examine it to better purpose in the dark."
"That is another of your odd notions," said the Prefect, who had a fashion of calling everything "odd" that was beyond his comprehension, and thus lived amid an absolute legion of "oddities."”
