“Alien Angel: The Poet Edgar Allan Poe”, by Jerome McGann, is a literary book which explores the works of the famous American poet.
“Alien”, by Geoff McGann, is a coffee table book of illustrations which high-jacks the original literary work by extracting a “hidden” linear textual narrative. The extracted text is combined with page by page illustrations that bring to light the “true” persona and mind-set of Poe, bringing him back from the grave to offer wisdom to the decadence of 21st century culture.
