Edgar Allan Poe-drunk, drug-addled madman, maniac...or was he? Much of what we know today about the Master of the Macabre is based in misinformation and falsehood. Poe’s literary legacy and reputation was hijacked by his greatest nemesis, Rufus Wilmot Griswold-who laid the foundation for many of the popular impressions of Poe which linger to this day. Although Edgar Allan Poe’s life was riddled with tragedy, his contribution to literature is immense and often overlooked. Join us at the Woodbridge Main Library October 2 at 7PM for a presentation that will refute the common myths about the life of Edgar Allan Poe, and also explore the unsolved mystery of his death.
