{"product_id":"9780984679836","title":"Selected Works of Edgar Allan Poe: Bilingual Edition: English-French","description":"Born in Boston in 1809, Edgar Allan Poe struggled for most of his life to earn his living entirely through his writings. His most famous poem, \"The Raven,\" earned him only $9 when it was published in 1845. His wife, Virginia, died two years after its publication, which seems to have sent Poe into a downward spiral of alcohol abuse and erratic behavior. Poe himself died only two years after Virginia, in 1849, at the age of 40.\u003cp\u003eThis bilingual edition of some of the most famous of Poe's short stories is designed to assist those learning French.
