I'm a way too big of a fan of Edgar Allan Poe to rate it differently. Out—out are the lights—out all!  And, over each quivering form, The curtain, a funeral pall,  Comes down with the rush of a storm, While the angels, all pallid and wan,  Uprising, unveiling, affirm That the play is the tragedy, “Man,”  And its hero, the Conqueror Worm.But even I have to say that there are some of his poem that I do not particularly like, such as Al Aaraaf and The Bells. However, my all-time favourite remains unchanged. You cannot do better than The Raven.  “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil!—prophet still, if bird or devil!—And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted—nevermore!

The screenplay for Stanley Kubrick’s disturbing and exhilarating masterpiece, featuring 800 film stills chosen by the director.This unique illustrated screenplay features 800 still images from “A Clockwork Orange,” selected by Stanley Kubrick when the film was first released in 1971. As Kubrick comments in his introduction: “I have always wondered if there might be a more meaningful way to present a book about a film. To make, as it were, a complete graphic representation of the film, cut by cut, with the dialogue printed in the proper place in relation to the cuts, so that within the limits of still photos and words, an accurate (and I hope interesting) record of a film might be available… This book represents that attempt.”Screenplay by Stanley Kubrick, based on the novel by Anthony Burgess.

The Wonderland described in the tale plays with logic in ways that have made the story of lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is considered to be one of the most characteristic examples of the genre of literary nonsense.
