Some of the stories are funny, some horrifying, but all are inventive and subversive." --Smart Bitches, Trashy Books Praise for HIS HIDEOUS HEARTIndieBound bestsellerJunior Library Guild selection"A superb collection [that] brims over with fierce delight and uncanny invention; the stories here vary in their effect nearly as much as Poes do. And if you havent read Poe before, His Hideous Heart works equally well as an introduction, a tribute and a loving critique." --The New York Times Book Review "Presenting 13 reinterpretations of Poes works alongside the originals, this enticing anthology offers an accessible, multifaceted reading experience for fans old and new...A refreshing assortment of diverse voices and contemporary themes ensures theres something for everyone." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "A genre-bending collection of 13 twists on Edgar Allan Poes works does Poe proud with this creepy and atmospheric set of stories. Diversity in race, gender identity, and sexuality is well-represented. Poes ghost happily haunts this fresh, delightfully dark collection." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review (Best Book of the Year) "While we love Edgar Allan Poe--the original sadboi and Halloweens unofficial literary mascot--we have to admit that his 150-year-old stories could use a 2019-worthy glow-up. The YA story collection His Hideous Heart takes that challenge and runs with it. Each of the anthologys contributors revamp or totally reinvent 13 of Poes best-known stories and poems, imbuing most of them with a much-needed dose of feminism, LGBTQ representation, and racial diversity." --HelloGiggles.comPraise for THAT WAY MADNESS LIES"From comedy to tragedy to sonnet, from texts to storms to prom, this collection is a knockout." --BuzzFeed "The stories stand capably on their own merits, but will be enriched by familiarity with--or better yet, reading alongside--Shakespeares original plays and sonnets. Budding writers may even be inspired to put their own spins on the Bard of Avons timeless tales." --BookPage "Thoughtfully curated by Adler, this sumptuous anthology reframes Shakespeares work, linking themes to contemporary concerns while bringing a critical eye to the originals cultural assumptions. With its range of narrative styles and diverse protagonists, this collection offers much to savor." --Publishers Weekly Review Quote Praise for HIS HIDEOUS HEART: IndieBound bestseller Junior Library Guild selection "A superb collection [that] brims over with fierce delight and uncanny invention; the stories here vary in their effect nearly as much as Poes do.
