The grand-prize winner of a writing contest sponsored by the Philadelphia Dollar Newspaper, "The Gold-Bug" was one of Poe's most popular stories during his lifetime. Similar to his ratiocination tales - early versions of what we now call detective fiction - "The Gold-Bug" is full of mystery and adventure and includes a cryptogram, invisible ink, a scarab-like bug, and pirate treasure.

what an imagination ! I want to write with cryptography now. A lot of detail and some prejudices from a hundred years ago are relevant, if you can look past that it's a great short story

Quick gothic mystery. It’s a shame this story is often overlooked due to dated language. At the time of its publication, it was one of the most widely read of his stories.

Poe never disappoints.

What a fun story teller that saves the best for last. Narration brought the story to .life.this

The narration was a bit lackluster IMO. The narrator sounds wooden and noncommittal to me. Fun to hear it again though, I haven’t read this story in many years.

It’s a great story

3.75 of 5 stars.

With the 19th century prose one expects from Poe, "The Gold-Bug" (1843) is an earlier example of Poe's writing which seems suited for a weekly publication. Centered around a treasure hunt using a cryptogram, "The Gold-Bug" one can see an earlier version of Poe's detective fiction (though not technically).

The narration is appropriate for Poe's dense prose and makes the story easier for the modern listener to follow.

Classic Poe

No getting around the racist tones and dialect. It’s a rough listen on that front. I loved the words, phrases, and mystery of the story. Poe’s description of cabins, forests, and insanity is just mind-blowing. Such word choices that you can’t help but say some of them out loud and wonder “what in the name of all things does THAT mean?” But then Poe gives such powerful context that you get close to knowing, unless you’re already that smart…ahem. Nice little cruel payoff at the end.

Beautiful, engaging, and rough

I found this hard to follow, the old English, and sub-par narration had me hanging on every word. people must have had a lot more brain power to follow that mystery.

Interesting
