The Raven

The Raven is a narrative poem written by Edgar Allan Poe, an american author. First published in 1845, the poem is often noted for its musicality, stylized expression, and mysterious atmosphere. Sitting on a Pallas bust, with its frequent repetition of the word "Nevermore," the raven seems to annoy the protagonist further. Folk, mythological, religious, and classical references are included in the poem.
