A Dream Within a Dream by Edgar Allan Poe: Impermanence, Loss & Time Slipping Away

Can anything we love be held onto, or does it slip away like sand? Edgar Allan Poe’s “A Dream Within a Dream” moves from a farewell to a desperate struggle on a wave-battered shore, turning a few brief stanzas into an unsettling question about reality and loss. Henrique Couto reads the complete poem in this short Weekly Spooky presentation. A quiet moment of Gothic poetry for listeners drawn to Poe’s imagery, the fear of time passing and the fragile boundary between what we experience and what we can keep. Published in 1849, its doubt still lingers.
