excellent recording! skimming through the story again as i write an essay. i think its compelling to see the cat as a symbolic metaphor for his wife

This story chilled me to the bone. I think the cat was an omen of death, a spirit. That's what I love about poe, open to interpretation 😊

Funny how most people think all of his writing is best read with an English accent when Poe was a Boston boy😂

I think it's more the way he spoke and wrote that lends itself that way. I'd really be interested to hear his actual voice. I imagine Vincent Priceish, but not quite, and his readings are not my favorite

It is because he used a British English, I noticed that when I read the mask of the red death.

I haven't listened to this yet..but I will soon. I was a huge fan of reading poe 30 yrs ago as a kid. I remember this story as being one of the scariest...for me, anyway. Maybe I'm remembering it wrong but isn't this a lot like "Pet Semetary" by Stephen King?
@classicaudiobookswithelliot Жыл бұрын
I’ve never read Pet Semetary actually! But this is certainly a creepy idea for a story. Well worth listening to (in my humble opinion!).
