Author Description

Evermore: Fifth Edition is the latest in The Ravens Quoth Press’s acclaimed anthology series, uniting poets from across the globe in a shared homage to Edgar Allan Poe. Dark, lyrical, and evocative, this collection weaves themes of death, melancholy, madness, and the supernatural with fresh voices that echo the master of gothic verse while bringing their own originality to the tradition. The poems within traverse haunted houses, spectral landscapes, ghostly loves, and uncanny dreamscapes. Shadows shift between intimacy and dread, illuminating how the gothic imagination continues to haunt and inspire modern poetry. Each piece carries a deep respect for atmosphere, sound, and symbolism—whether through chilling imagery, romantic melancholy, or unsettling reflection. Together, the anthology reads like a chorus of voices calling through the veil, each poem a candle lit in Poe’s eternal literary house. Perfect for admirers of gothic literature, students of Poe, and lovers of dark, atmospheric verse, Evermore: Fifth Edition offers both a tribute and a reimagining. It proves that the gothic is not confined to the nineteenth century but continues to breathe, evolve, and enchant today’s readers. Featured Authors: Andrea Tillmanns Autumn Haes Braille Lia T.
