About This Novel
Edgar Allan Poe set the example of mystery novels with works such as "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", "The Mystery of Mary Roger", "The Purloined Letter" and "The Gold Bug". He also became unique in the literary world with his depictions of "the beauty of death" and "the death of beauty", extreme physical and mental morbidity, decay and death, as well as his deliberate pursuit of horrific effects, which paved the way for later generations of horror novels. "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" selects and translates the more representative works of Edgar Allan Poe's novels on various themes as well as his only novel that can be regarded as a full-length (unfinished), in order to provide a relatively accurate selection for readers who are unable to read all of his works.

The truth about Mr. Baldemar's case
It's a bit scary. The hypnosis is written so wonderfully. There is a trace of spiritual atmosphere, but the body is decayed.
The Mystery of Mary Roger
Although the case was solved remotely and the clues were almost found in the reports, the reasoning process was very detailed and I felt that my criminal investigation ability was very powerful. Unfortunately, the reality is still inconclusive in the end.
