A beautiful short story by Edgar Allan Poe and a grand introduction to the unreliable narrator genre! I love this book so much and 100% recommend it. My only flaw is that the pictures in my version (I got it off Amazon and it had been printed by Amazon) really made 0 sense regarding the actual story. The story is also incredibly short, due to it being a short story. I would have rather had this story in a collection of Edgar Allan Poe stories where it would have been worth the price tag for 5 pages.
