The Tell- Tale Heart
I expected "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe was just going to be another difficult story to understand. But after I started to read it I found it creepy but yet interested how he expressed his emotion towards the old man's eyes. Who knew an eye would lead you to your death. But what got my attention is the way he went more crazy after he killed the old man and cut his head, arms and even legs. Which is beyond insane especially when he started to hear the old man's "heart" when reality it was his own heart that he was listening to.

Is very hard to find a like short history like this one in Spanish language. A lot of suspense and as you say a creepy ending. Is like a gore tale, very unusual for my reading experience. Definitely recommended.
ReplyDeletehey, i agree i thought this story was insane! i found it crazy how he mentions that he has love towards the old man but hated his eye. Poe didn't really elaborate about the hatred towards the eye much. I think the hatred came because he mentally had issues of his own and decided to take it out on the old mans eye.
