The Raven: And Other Poems and Stories by Edgar Allan Poe

dark emotional mysterious reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

One must return to Poe always. Psychologically brutal yet deeply romantic, you're left entranced to the beat of his obsession. 

It's debatable whether his poems or short stories reign supreme, but both are sublime. His published works are scarce, so this little volume features most of the final versions of most of his poems. Maybe I'll go through his entire corpus sometime this year. I've never set out to do so, so I know I've missed a few works.
