Poe's Daughter, Pym's Soul Steven Leech

While Poe's daughter never makes an appearance in Poe's Daughter, Pym's Soul, her presence is felt in the lives of those most affected by slavery and impending Civil War. Poe's daughter becomes a force that brings people together to change history from the one that actually transpired. The novel also uses the actual words of John Lofland, Delaware's first renown and largely unknown literary artist. Selections from this novel earned the author two fellowship grants from the Delaware Division of the Arts.
