New e-book: The Fall of the House of Usher, Edgar Allan Poe

An unnamed narrator arrives at a secluded, decaying mansion, home to Roderick Usher and his sister Madeline. The oppressive silence and growing unease surrounding the last members of the Usher family seem to echo through the house’s crumbling rooms. Set in an unspecified period of the early nineteenth century, the story explores isolation, psychological fragility, and the decline of a family whose fate is bound to its ancestral home.
