 Amazing short story, I could really go in depth on why I love it if I wanted to but I don't really have the time or motivation. It's very unsettling, interesting and intense. Describes so much with so little and you get really a really distinct picture of the story while still being able to imagine a lot for yourself. I am definitely going to read more Edgar Allan Poe in the future, I am so hooked.

I read this for school last month, as part of a collection of short stories. I enjoyed the writing and the clever plot twist that made you go back and read it again. Nothing amazing, nothing terrible.
