Greetings Everyone!
It’s Lammas now and the nights are getting longer and there is a feel of autumn in the air. I looked up at the moon tonight; it was a Halloween moon, tinted orange.
Leo Spitzer, Edgar Allan Poe scholar, makes an interesting observation about Poe: "He is necessarily driven towards pure abstractions...And death represents the ultimate abstraction, the zero degree of concrete reality”
What do you make of that?
