For example, are we sure that no letters from Poe to Annie in Poe's hand have survived? Blogs by Allen J.

On one hand he seems content to view her as only a dear friend and "Sister" yet also as a lover and a wife. It's quite curious to me. Therefore I believe they were tampered with and that there are some loose ends yet to be tied up. <br /><br />I for one do not think Poe would have been so untrue to his wife's memory. His so-called-relationships with all these women are quite a jumbled mess and biographers have done a poor job of sorting it all out. I think you do a lovely job of setting the record straight and I take your view on these matters. Kaitlyn https://www.blogger.com/profile/13153335536945883358noreply@blogger.com
