   No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  JBTaylor42 | Feb 7, 2021 |  Hey wow actually really holds up. I don’t think I’ve read The Raven since high school, and it’s nice going through it with the vocabulary of a functioning adult. For something over a 150 years old it really stood the test of time. The rhythm is positively hypnotic, the subject matter positively chilling, and just perfect word choice: Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer So much envy. The drypoint etchings of illustration Ryan Price really bring the feel of Gothic horror to life, and add a splash of color to the dear-departed Lenore. (  ) pvoberstein | Dec 14, 2020 | Very high quality work from Poe. Possibly among the best work produced by American writers... (  ) scottcholstad | Jan 14, 2020 | The Raven is a legendary poem, but within the other poems included are more words that will ring with great familiarity. Beautifully flowing poetry from an iconic author. ( ) AngelaJMaher | Dec 30, 2019 | Oh boy, this was weird. I don't even know where to begin with the plot. I know this is a wildly loved movie, but I feel like they missed the mark when transitioning this to a book. It was a super short book and felt like the tone of the book felt more like a movie synopsis. I love the story itself, just the writing messed it up for me. This is a weird case where the movie was far better. (  ) Adamazing | Jul 12, 2019 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

"The Raven" is a narrative poem by American writer Edgar Allan Poe. First published in January 1845, the poem is often noted for its musicality, stylized language, and supernatural atmosphere. It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow fall into madness. The lover, often identified as being a student is lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. Sitting on a bust of Pallas, the raven seems to further instigate his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". The poem makes use of a number of folk, mythological, religious, and classical references. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

I couldn’t get enough, and when it was over I truly wanted more. Hence not getting enough. It was just so damn good. The was my first Poe story and it will not be my last as Poe’s characters are laid bare with such simplistic force and eloquent wordage. The power of his writing sneaks up on you and hits you with a hurricane of force.
The ebb and flow of this story, the honesty. You feel the wanting, his deep sense of sorrow. This story was art in its truest form.
Quoth the raven, “Nevermore!” (
