Edgar Allan Poe
The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe is a dark and unforgettable tale of revenge, pride, and psychological horror—one of the most chilling short stories in the history of American literature.
Set against the backdrop of Italy’s carnival season, this gothic masterpiece follows the cunning Montresor as he lures his unsuspecting victim, Fortunato, into the catacombs beneath his home with the promise of tasting a rare wine: Amontillado. What begins as a celebration of indulgence quickly descends into a terrifying descent into madness, deception, and cold-blooded vengeance. With each step deeper into the darkness, Poe masterfully builds suspense, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere thick with tension, irony, and symbolism.
In this enhanced audiobook edition, we begin with a thoughtful introduction that explores the story’s central themes—revenge, pride, guilt, and justice—along with a breakdown of its major characters and the symbolic elements hidden throughout the narrative. This contextual overview is perfect for both new listeners and returning fans who want a richer understanding of Poe’s work.
