Edgar Allan Poe


Thanks to the tip from Anj, visited the street on upper west side where Edgar Allan Poe once lived - on 84th street between Broadway and West End Avenue.Adding to the environment, there is a cosy cafe called "Edgar's Cafe", where unfortunately I did not like the food :(. But this walk certainly reminded me of those boyhood weekends when I had just started to read English literature - stories like 'The Gold Bug' and 'The Tell-tale Heart' have a place of their own in every reader's heart, as does my family's old-fashioned, leather-bound, red coloured short stories of Poe in our village bookshelf.
