 ... disbelief” his tales are fuelled invariably by opium, and you frequently venture into an almost Kafkaesque landscape, where bizzarity is the norm. Yet far from the acerbic challenge that Kafka represents Poe is more like Rex Warner in his purity of linearity. His plots while convoluted are predictable, but enjoyably so.
