É desafiador adaptar clássicos da literatura, tantas vezes interpretados. A história está contada, tem começo, meio e fim; recontá-la demanda a carpintaria das palavras, encontrando nelas um tom peculiar e diverso, mas ao mesmo tempo mantendo a devida reverência ao texto original – algo como tocar em um violão uma peça escrita para um violino. Foi preciosa a experiência de tocar a partitura de Edgar Allan Poe, cujo texto, misterioso e solene, apresenta um clima de apreensão permanente a cada virada de página – e também um refinado e sombrio humor.

His father alternatively spoiled or chastised him and tension was frequent over gambling debts and monies for his education.

Un homme apparemment en deuil, est hanté par la perte d'une femme nommée Lenore. Il est assis dans son étude, plongé dans la mélancolie et la tristesse, lorsque le corbeau entre mystérieusement dans la pièce.

Le poème met en lumière l’idée que la douleur du deuil peut mener à une quête d'oubli, mais que cette quête se heurte inévitablement à la réalité de la perte, un thème central dans l’œuvre de Poe.
