    “The Raven” by Edgar Alan Poe is a relatively long poem‚ and is one of my personal favorites. This poem‚ like all of Poe’s other works‚ speaks of madness and that is‚ perhaps‚ why I find it so enjoyable. In this poem an unnamed narrator‚ having just lost his mistress‚ seems to be losing his sanity as he indulges in a conversation with a raven who may only say “Nevermore.” The narrator seems to compulsively construct self-destructive meaning around the raven’s repetition of the word “Nevermore
