Books on Broad: The Raven's Bride March 10, 2011

The March installment of Books on Broad will feature Lenore Hart on her latest novel, The Raven's Bride, about the mysterious and confounding relationship between Edgar Allan Poe and Sissy Clemm, his great love and constant companion. The book explores love, loss, the afterlife, and American literature's most haunted and demonized literary figure, by imagining the real, beating heart of the woman who loved and inspired him—and whose absence ultimately destroyed him. Light refreshments (wine and cheese) served, 5:30–6:15 pm; author talk and discussion, 6:15–7:00 pm; book signing, 7:00–7:30 pm.
