Description
"Eureka: A Prose Poem" by Edgar Allan Poe is a non-fiction work published in 1848.

Poe considered it his greatest achievement—more important than Newton's discovery of gravity. Though contemporaries found it absurd, some ideas surprisingly anticipate modern cosmology. The work blends science, metaphysics, and Poe's trademark ratiocination in an unprecedented philosophical meditation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
