poe

  I have always thought of Poe as the Steven King of his time. Poe is not easy for me to understand but I do love that his stories do not follow the norm. In Edgar Allen Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado,"A wealthy man is jealous of another man wealth. The jealousy takes over and causes him to lurer his nemesis to the catacombs with promises of expensive wine. The entire walk through the caves he gets his nemesis drunker and drunker. Finally they reach the end and he chains his foe the the cave wall full of bones of other unlucky people. He then builds a wall sealing off that part of the cavern off from anyone else. I would have like to know where all the bones were from was this man a serial killer. I feel like Poe leaves me wondering way too much.
