When Poe takes us to sea, we get sucked in.In “A Descent into the Maelstrom” (1841) Poe’s narrator recounts his horrific experience when he and his brother’s boat get sucked down in the world’s fastest moving current of water, the tumultuous maelstrom known as Moskenesstraumen. Constructed as a story within a story, “A Descent into the Maelström” is a beautiful and gripping tale about the rough life on the seven seas told in the manner of Coleridge’s “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.”In 1980, the legendary American composer Philip Glass composed a much-praised 66-minute piece based on the short story.Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American poet, author, and literary critic. Most famous for his poetry, short stories, and tales of the supernatural, mysterious, and macabre, he is also regarded as the inventor of the detective genre and a contributor to the emergence of science fiction, dark romanticism, and weird fiction. His most famous works include “The Raven” (1945), "The Black Cat” (1943), and “The Gold-Bug” (1843).
