The interior is not just the universe but also the etui of the private in-

tuated. Coverlets and antimacassars, cases and containers are devised in
abundance; in these, the traces of the most ordinary objects of use are im-

the interior. Enter the detective story, which pursues these traces. Poe, in

himself to be the first physiognomist of the domestic interior. The crimi-

vate citizens of the middle class.
