One Hour/One Poem: Discover the verse of Edgar Allan Poe

Make a date with a poem and Dr. Susie Paul. Off the success last year of One Hour/One Poem, Paul returns to The NewSouth Bookstore to teach one great nineteenth- or early twentieth-century poem in each of four sessions of an hour or less. The program is a deep dive into the work of four significant American writers, all giants of the poetic form: Edgar Allan Poe, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Robert Frost, and Langston Hughes. Paul is a master educator with a deep love of poetry, who is thrilled to have the opportunity to teach these works. “A Dream Within a Dream” by Edgar Allen Poe, written in 1849, is the subject of her first session, scheduled for Tuesday, February 10, 2026 at 5:30 p.m. Hope you can join us.
