The Black Cat

The Black Cat

Edgar Allan Poe

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

One of Edgar Allan Poe's most memorable stories. The tale centers on two matters, a black cat and the deterioration of a man. The man is one who enjoyed family life with his wife and numerous pets, but then he changed radically for the worse. The story is often compared to "The Tell-Tale Heart" because of the profound psychological elements these two works share. "The Black Cat" is a story you will never forget. Librarian's note: this entry relates to the story "The Black Cat." Collections and other short stories by the author can be found elsewhere on Goodreads.

Publication Year: 2004
