Double murder.

A raven sculpture outside the Poe National Historic Site in Philly.  I never made it inside while it was open from my training in August, but I’d really like to go back.  This is the bicentennial of Poe’s birth, and we’ll have a grand celebration in Baltimore, too, I’m sure.  How cool would it be to get to travel up and down the coast to the cities he’s called home?

I’ve had Poe on the brain lately. I have re-memorized “The Raven” just, well, because. If you’re interested in his death, I’d recommend Matthew Pearl’s The Poe Shadow.  It contains some “original research” into Poe’s mysterious death in Baltimore, 160 years ago this month.

You should see all the Poe toys I’ve collected. Rather, I should take some pictures of them.
