Eureka is Poe's attempt at explaining the universe, using his general proposition "Because Nothing was, therefore All Things are". In it, Poe discusses man's relationship to God and the universe or, as he offers at the beginning: "I design to speak of the Physical, Metaphysical and Mathematical – of the Material and Spiritual Universe: of its Essence, its Origin, its Creation, its Present Condition and its Destiny".

"The Fall of the House of Usher" is a narrative short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1839 in Burton's Gentleman's Magazine before being included in the collection "Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque" in 1840.

Amid silent marshlands, an ancient mansion seems to suffocate under the weight of its own decay. Roderick Usher, the last of his line, suffers from a strange affliction: his senses are sharpened to a painful intensity, and he fears sound, light, and life itself. This audiobook is a chronicle of slow disintegration. Madness does not burst in with a scream — it seeps through the stones of the house and into the minds of those who live within it.
