The narrator was reading books late one night to forget about his love when he heard knocking at his door. -
The narrator went back inside and heard tapping again and blamed it on the window and nothing else. -
He opened the window and a big Raven flew in and went straight to the statue above the door and did nothing. -
The narrator was surprised the raven could talk but didn't mean much to him. -
The raven made the man calm and thought about why the bird only said Nevermore. -
The narrator smelled a sweet perfume like angles had walked in the room realized that maybe the god sent the raven to help take away the grief. -
Then the narrator asked again "bird or demon" then asked if he will see Lenore again. -
The man yelled at the raven to leave and to never come back but the raven didn't move and said Nevermore. -
The raven never left it is still on the statue of the goddess Athena it looks like a demon, the lamp creates a shadow of the raven. -
The narrator's fire was dying on a cold night and made ghost shapes on the floor and wanted morning to come because he was thinking about his loss Lenore. -
The narrator felt braver and said he was sorry to whatever was there then opened the door but nothing. -
He stood at the door staring at the darkness then said Lenore and heard an echo. -
The narrators curtains were moving from the wind and it gave him a new fear but told himself it was just someone knocking nothing else. -
The narrator asked the bird its name because the raven was not afraid, the bird said Nevermore then sat there and did nothing more. -
The raven sat quietly then the narrator said other friends left me and the bird said Nevermore.
-
The narrator was surprised again on how fast the bird replies and thought the bird could say more.
-
The man sat looking at the raven for a while thinking about how his love Lenore would never sit next to him again. -
The narrator questioned if the raven was sent to help him or cursed the raven said Nevermore.
