annabel lee

The Junior Boys of The River Academy Theatre on the Air arranged and sang their version of Edgar Allan Poe's melancholic "Annabel Lee."

Edgar Allan Poe had a sad life, losing every woman he ever loved. Of course, he’s famous for his macabre stories, but it’s his very last poem that is truly fascinating. Who was Poe’s Annabel Lee? Was she his wife or some secret love who’s been lost in history? There’s a legend in Charleston, South Carolina that you may find compelling. We know a lot about Poe’s dark mind, but in this episode, we’ll explore a lesser known side of him—his heart.

Poe writes about the haunting side of dreams, but he rarely calls them nightmares. Do all dreams carry within them the potential for nightmares? In this Poe piece, we experience the emotion of loss. To lose a loved one. Not just any love, but a love that was more than love. Imagine if you will being in love as a teenager. The intensity of it. Now imagine if you will losing that person right at the height of that emotional intensity. How would that feel? What would that look like? Poe shows us.
