Murders in the rue morgue is a fiercly obscure short story, based arond two equally obscure and charismatic detectives. I'm comparing it with Raymond Chandler's 'the big sleep' in an essay. Any ideas about the narrative voice?
Sorry, I just saw this. "Fiercely obscure"? I'm hoping at some point you figured out that this was the birth of the modern detective story, whoever you are. Midnightdreary 20:16, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rue Morgue (magazine)
The tag
at the top of this article was moved into a "See also" section. I changed Rue Morgue to redirect to the magazine because that seemed to make more sense. Midnightdreary 18:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Plot summary
This is one of the few articles that actually needs an expanded plot summary (most are way too long). Anyway, if anyone wants to give it a go, that would be great. Midnightdreary 16:15, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
