True Crime
In this episode, we talk about the murder of Mary Rogers and how it inspired Edgar Allen Poe. Poe's "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" is widely considered to be the first modern detective novel, spawning a hugely popular genre that still stands strong today. He wrote a sequel called "The Mystery of Marie Rogêt," which Poe used as an artistic exercise in trying to solve the real-life murder of Mary Rogers. Unfortunately, he would be unsuccessful. Mary's murder remains a mystery still today.
