“Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping — rapping at my chamber door. “Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door — Only this and nothing more.””. Those sonorous and somber words of Edgar Allan Poe that begin The Raven are part of most everyone’s fond educational memories. Beautiful and haunting to hear and even more fun to read aloud. In this recording I have just attempted to express my enjoyment of the beauty in some favorite Poe poems. Beside The Raven, there are Alone; A Dream Within A Dream; Annabel Lee; City In the Sea; The Bells; A Dream Within a Dream; Annabel Lee; Dreamland; Evening Star; Lenore; Eldorado; A Valentine and “The Happiest Day”. Hopefully listeners will enjoy hearing them half as much as I enjoyed the selfish pleasure of recording them. (Summary by Phil Chenevert)     [chương_files]

Perhaps Edgar Allen Poe’s most famous poem, the “Raven” is a macabre exploration of a man, his memories of Lenore, and the black bird that interrupts his studies on a dark December night, with tap-tap-tapping at his chamber door. (Summary by Hugh)     [chương_files]

Edgar Allan Poe (1809 – 1849) is widely famed as one of the greatest writers of all time. He is best known for his works of horror, such as “The Tell Tale Heart.” However, and this is less known, Poe also wrote many love poems. In this collection of forty-eight poems by Edgar Allan Poe we will go through a wide variety of themes, from horror and raw creepiness in “The Raven” to pure love in “A Valentine” to depression in “Alone.” Throughout all of his poems Poe kept a very strong meter and rhyme scheme. This is most obvious in “The Bells.” (Summary by Shurtagal)     [chương_files]
