Title: The Golden Watch
Genre: Horror Fantasy
Review:
The story revolves around a man who went unconscious during the election, it’s the imagination of an alcoholic in delirium tremens. Mr. Reynolds helped him reaching the hospital as he was helping him getting votes. Dr. Moran helped the guy to recover, he was the old school friend of Mr. Reynolds but unfortunately the man never recovered.
That man was later revealed to be Edgar Allan Poe. Do you know who’s he ? He is a famous and well known American writer who wrote “The Raven,” the nuns recognised him. In the hospital itself, he started writing till the sunset. He started writing “The Blue Bottle” and then wrote “The Golden Watch.” Later, someone set the pages to fire and he screamed. Then, Poe’s mother came to the hospital to meet him but the climax will make you cry !! The Golden Watch went by him, watch will always be remembered. The Lady In The Gray would always be remembered.
The antagonist, Reynolds already appeared as the evil character in the author’s previous books about Edgar Allan Poe: Hamlet In Baltimore, The Blue Bottle.
My favourite book which made me emotional at the end. It had all the elements of a perfect short read. The language is simple and easy to understand. The illustrations are beautiful, it has its own significance to make it a masterpiece. The storyline is perfect, I liked all the characters and specially Poe. All the nuns were really kind and helpful. This book is recommended to all the readers, it’s a short and a crisp story.
P.S: The condition of the hospital was really bad but somehow all the patients were surviving.

I would like to mention the illustrator, Francisco Duenias Serrano for his tremendous illustrations without which this book couldn’t be a masterpiece !!
