No only does he have a poetic, yet not over-dramatic way of describing things, his vocabulary surpasses mine greatly also. I'm pretty sure I had to check the definition of a word at least once every 5 pages. Conveniently I was reading on my phone, which made it very easy to switch to Siri to immediately get a definition.
For those who are too lazy to actually go read it, even though it's relatively short, the movie does a superb job of portraying it and is astoundingly accurate.
Since there are so many classics on iBooks or free I decided to download a bunch of them. The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe is next on the list, I'm hoping it'll be just as impressive.
