Good Mourning, Nancy Podcast

We return with a very special episode about American author and poet Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849). You thought your life was crap? Listen as we tell the tale of Poe’s “tragical” attempt at love, his dealings with loss and grief, his constant state of poverty, and his addiction to alcohol. The good times are few and far between in this episode. All we can do now is thank Poe for bringing out the little (or big) goth in all of us! --- Buy Charlotte Montague’s book here: https://www.amazon.com/Edgar-Allan-Poe-Strange-Standing/dp/078583334X Check out Wanderlust on a Budget: http://wanderlust-onabudget.com/blog/ The Edgar Allan Poe Society of Baltimore: https://www.eapoe.org/balt/poegrave.htm Buy Poe’s collected works here: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/barnes-noble-leatherbound-classics-the-complete-tales-and-poems-of-edgar-allan-poe-edgar-allan-poe/1106658787#/ Thanks to Lily LeBlanc for our theme song: www.lilythecomposer.com
