It seems crazy to me that I literally can't remember if I read Poe in school or not! Was he so shocking to me that I blocked him out or did I just somehow manage to navigate around his classic works?In any case, as an adult, he is an absolutely fascinating character to me in the most heart-wrenching way. I think a lot about those tortured souls who put such amazing work out into our world and yet suffer so immensely in their own ways. Poe and his works definitely belong in this category!My only challenge with this book was figuring out the table of contents but it's actually very well done once you get it. There is so much content in here that there is basically one table of contents at the beginning and then a "sub" TOC for each volume of work. I.e. Click on the "Volume" chapters to get a full listing of what gems are in there.For anyone who loves The Raven, the images that accompany this poem really are beautiful and add to the reading experience tremendously. Enjoy!
