Summary:
The narrator tells us he is nervous but not mad and has killed an old
man, not from passion but because of fear of the man’s blue eye. He says that
he loves him. The police arrive on the scene. At first he has a cool manner but
eventually the sound of tell-tale heart drives him to confess the crime.
Writing
Discuss any overturned assumptions you have.
What astonished you?
What is significant?
Bonus Q: Why is it that the police did
nothing (except sit and wait) but the man confessed?
