Monthly Blog- April
Well this is my last monthly blog and I am going to talk a little bit about what I think about the story that we read, The Tell Tale Heart. First off I thought this story was really weird. From my point of view I saw the narrator as a crazy person because he was so obsessed with killing this old man and there was no real reason that he gave the reader for doing this. It would make perfect sense to me if the background of the story was they were both in an insane asylum because they were both really paranoid. As the story progressed, the narrator got extremely paranoid and eventually cracked and during the night the old man seemed like he was more paranoid that he should be. The narrator made it seem like the old man was pure evil or at least his "eye" was. It seems like the narrator was in his own this world the entire story because he is the only one who sees this evil eye and is also the only one who hears the old mans beating heart in the end of the story. Overall this story was just kind of weird to me but it did keep me interested at least with the narrator going crazy.
