Three Police Officers Police Officers Narrator
368 words
The Tell-Tale Heart by Poe follows suit with the
previous two stories that we have responded to
containing plots of gruesome death, and a
character that can be perceived as mad. Each
author used different methods to bring one of
their characters to death, as does Poe, by
subjecting his victim to a slow and grueling death
in the floor. However, Poe's use of madness
differs from the other works, giving it a twist of
irony in the story. The story opens with the
narrator speaking of his madness comi...

Polar Bears Body Temperature

ectothermic and endothermic animals are. Animals

distant cousins, in a letter addressed to the
