Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Was there a theme or meaning you wanted us to talk about further? Let us know in the comments below! "The Raven" is one of Edgar Allan Poe's classic Poems and arguably his magnum opus. There are a lot of ways to break this down with messengers, communication to the afterlife, death, and more. Join us as we walk through some of our ways of looking at it though we understand there are many other approaches.

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Was there a theme or meaning you wanted us to talk about further? Let us know in the comments below! We haven't read George Saunders before. If you love him or loved this piece "Escape from Spiderhead", we'd love to hear what you'd love to see next! This was a very complex piece dealing with complex psychology on guilt, power and structure, free will, and identity. Let's talk about our interpretation today. We know there is a Netflix series coming out. We read this before the series was released and look forward to checking it out!
