My friend Andy Zornoza let me in on this amazing blog - A Journey Round My Skull - and told me to look up the Poe book with illustrations by Harry Clarke. I did, and now I am a smitten owner of Tales of Mystery and Imagination. It is a 2008 version of the original, and rare, 1923 one. It is really beautiful, and Harry Clarke's illustrations are so wonderfully spooky and fitting.
