Becoming Poe...

Long before The Raven, before the literary feuds, and before the world knew his name, Edgar Allan Poe was just young man trying to find his place in it.
In Episode 3, we're following Poe through some of the most formative and turbulent years of his life. We'll explore his romance with Elmira Royster, his troubled relationship with John Allan, his brief time at the University of Virginia, and the debts and disappointments that would alter the course of his future.
Along the way, we'll watch Edgar leave Richmond, publish his book of poetry, enlist in the United States Army under an assumed named, and rise through the ranks before finding himself at West Point, where another chapter of his life would come to abrupt and dramatic end.
This is the story of a young man standing at a crossroads. A poet before he was a legend. A solider before he was and author, and a dreamer trying to become something more than the world expected of him.
New to Poe? Welcome.
