Opinion about The Tell-Tale Heart


What I really like about The Tell-Tale Heart is the fact that the main character’s motivations are mostly dictated by his feelings and senses.  Therefore, when we read the story, we don’t have to engage in analysing and interpreting its character’s actions (since his actions are irrational) which makes it a really pleasant reading experience.
