Why read it?
1 author picked The Unabridged Edgar Allan Poe as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Poe was the first writer I read as a kid, and “The Cask of Amontillado,” to me is the penultimate story of jealousy and revenge that is as suspenseful as it is horrifying. Plus, there are two other tales of revenge and painstaking cruelty within this anthology: “Hop-Frog” and “The Fall of the House of Usher”.
This is classic revenge writing from the Gothic master, no offense Guy de Maupassant.
From TS's list on The best horror/thriller books about characters wronged and getting revenge.
