POES CHILDREN - TONY MAGISTRALE SIDNEY POGER KA...

This study traces Edgar Allan Poe's contribution to the Gothic tradition and his invention of
the detective tale. It explores the connections between these genres in British and American
writers influenced by Poe  such as Arthur Conan Doyle  Robert Louis Stevenson  Thomas Harris 
and Stephen King. This book also examines women writers strongly influenced by Poe  such as
Joyce Carol Oates  Sara Paretsky  and Sue Grafton. The last chapter of the volume considers
films - in particular  the Roger Corman Poe series   Chinatown  Seven  and Blade Runner - that
connect the horror and detective genres.
