About Poe & I

Jonah Peabody takes a job as caretaker and head docent for Poe Cottage, a historical house in The Bronx that once served as the last home for Edgar Allan Poe. The gig requires him to live on the premises so he can give tours on the weekend. The catch is that the caretaker's apartment is in the basement-Poe's Basement. From there it only gets weirder. This is a tale of family ghosts, sickness, revenge, and weird museums of unholy treasures. "Years ago, Matthew was the caretaker at the Poe Cottage in the Bronx and gave me a memorable tour, patiently answering my rambling questions. Now, in Poe and I, Matthew writes the novel that only he can.... A unique and captivating tale worthy of the legacy of Poe."-Matthew Pearl, Author of The Taking of Jemima Boone & The Poe Shadow "You don't need to be a Poe fan to be caught up in this marvelous, magical, mystical tour...."-Mark Dawidziak, author of A Mystery of Mysteries, The Death and Life of Edgar Allan Poe Proudly represented by Crystal Lake Publishing-Tales from the Darkest Depths.
