Long before The Raven, the detective stories, and the literary legend, there was simply Edgar.
In Episode 2, we're heading back to Poe's earliest years. We'll explore the brief and turbulent lives of his parents, the tragedy that left him orphaned at the age of two, and the wealthy Richmond family who would change the course of his life forever.
Along the way we'll follow young Edgar from Virginia to England and back again, discovering how loss and privilege shaped the boy who would one day become Edgar Allan Poe.
This is the story of the child before the poet, the dreamer before the legend, and the first chapter in one of literature's most fascinating lives.
New to Poe? Welcome.
