"The Raven" is one of my favourite poems, I've been reading a lot of poetry this year at Uni and I just fell in love with this poem, it's so creepy! I've studied the whole metric system it has and it's amazing how well it fits, straight to the point. There's also a good Hebrew translation for it, with the same metric system (must've been really difficult) and it sounds great but very hard- no one uses these words nowadays. Mind you, no one really knows Hebrew nowadays!
Lol I never watch horror films as I get scared (I'm so girly sometimes) but I like horror books- they're not really scary and they keep you on the edge. I don't like detective type novels as there's usually no depth in them and it's not the type of novels I like reading. I enjoy a bit of Post Modernism for fun but I mostly like Modernism- a lot of plot, meaning, drama, crazy personalities and psychoanalysis.
