London: Creation Oneiros 2013. First printing Trade paperback New. Harry Clarke. London: Creation Oneiros: 2013. First printing Trade paperback New 111 pp. Cover artwork by: Harry Clarke "DEAD BRIDES contains the cycle of five vampiric stories written between 1835 and 1842 which in many ways forms the sepulchral nucleus of Poe's prose work: Berenice Morella Ligeia The Fall Of The House Of Usher and The Oval Portrait. In these classic tales Poe investigates the essentially vampiric nature of human relationships including love and lust both normal and incestuous and develops his theme to observe the lesion of vitality inherent in the creative or artistic process. Vampirism with its terrible energy exchanges and exactions is ultimately Poe's analogy for a love that persists beyond the grave - an all-consuming necrophiliac passion that cannot be sated until an undead reconciliation is effected. DEAD BRIDES is illustrated by Harry Clarke and includes a foreword on Poe by the author H P Lovecraft as well as an afterword on Poe opium and the pathology of the house of Usher."
