About this ebook

Ligeia, a beautiful, passionate and intellectual woman, raven-haired and dark-eyed. The narrator is unable to recall anything about the history of Ligeia, including her family's name, but remembers her beautiful appearance. Her beauty, however, is not conventional. He describes her as emaciated, with some strangeness. They marry, and Ligeia impresses her husband with her immense knowledge of physical and mathematical science, and her proficiency in classical languages. She begins to show her husband her knowledge of metaphysicaland forbidden wisdom. The book also features several other stories including: Morella, The Spectacles, King Pest, X-ing a Paragraph, How to Write a Blackwood Article.
