Levi Lionel Leland

Join us for an evening inside the haunted mind of one of America's most prolific poets, Edgar Allan Poe! Share your favorite Poe poem or Poe-inspired original. Featured author and Poe-expert, Levi Lionel Leland, will talk about his journey through Poe's life and works, and how he came to write his book, Edgar Allan Poe: The Master of the Macabre.

Levi Lionel Leland is a born-and-raised Rhode Islander with a near-lifelong passion for Edgar Allan Poe. After tracing Poe's steps throughout the country, he turned his focus homeward, learning all he could about Poe's time in Providence and the local poet to whom he was engaged in 1848, Sarah Helen Whitman. Levi created edgarallanpoeri.com and A Walking Tour of Poe’s Providence to share this history with the world. Levi is the author of a recent biography of Poe from Simon & Schuster titled Edgar Allan Poe: The Master of the Macabre.
