It's a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe, as I've said, it's a short story so there's not really a good excuse that I can currently see as to why most of you have not read it. Poe uses his words economically in, “The Tell-Tale Heart” it is to provide a study of paranoia and mental deterioration.
It's quite interesting... |

So basicly what its about for the people who havent read it * spoiler alert*
Its about a young man (around 20) working for a oldman ( sorta like elderly house care) he is nice to the old man feed,cleans,entertains the old he doesnt hate him one bit.But the old man has a dead eye (this annoys the younger man) he goes into the old mans room with a lantern to shine it on his eye and one night his eye was open this made the young man so angry he killed him. The next day the police come and chat and ask questions while talking he goes insane( more or less with guilt) and tells him he killed him.
THE END....***Clap*** |
