di Edgar Allan Poe (Autore)

SPA Publishing, 2025

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A masterpiece of psychological horror and gothic suspense, The Tell-Tale Heart is one of Edgar Allan Poe’s most famous and enduring short stories. First published in 1843, this chilling tale captures the torment of guilt and the fragile line between sanity and madness. Told from the perspective of an unnamed narrator, the story recounts the murder of an old man whose “vulture eye” has driven the speaker to obsession. Convinced of his cleverness and composure, the narrator meticulously plans and carries out the crime, hiding the evidence with apparent success. Yet as the investigation unfolds, a sound begins to grow in his ears—the relentless beating of a heart. Whether real or imagined, it drives him into a frenzy of terror and ultimately betrays his crime. Poe’s tale is a study in unreliable narration, claustrophobic tension, and the crushing weight of conscience. With its sharp focus on obsession, paranoia, and psychological breakdown, ***The Tell-Tale Heart***stands as one of the most powerful explorations of guilt in all of literature. This audiobook edition brings Poe’s haunting prose and dark atmosphere to life, immersing listeners in the fevered mind of a narrator unraveling under the pressure of his own deeds. Perfect for fans of gothic fiction, psychological thrillers, and timeless tales of horror, The Tell-Tale Heart is an unforgettable journey into the shadows of the human soul.
