Summary
The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe is a haunting narrative poem about a man consumed by grief over the loss of his beloved Lenore. On a dreary night, he is visited by a mysterious raven that perches on a bust of Pallas and repeats the word "Nevermore." As the night progresses, the narrator's sanity deteriorates as he becomes increasingly obsessed with the raven and its ominous word, which he interprets as a denial of hope and escape from his sorrow.
