"Prophet of afflictions," I said! A demon, a bird or a ghost!

177 years have passed since its publication, and to this day the monumental work "The Raven" by the "patriarch" of Gothic horror Edgar Allan Poe, continues to fascinate, inspire as well as ponder over the big themes it touches on - love, futility, death and the metaphysical.
The writer and psychotherapist Haris Varoutis attempts a new translation faithful to the tragic style of the poem, as well as a psycho-analytical meeting with Poe in an attempt to answer the chilling "Never Again" of the Raven...
The poem is illustrated with original black and white sketches by Giorgos Atartis
