Title: The Tell-Tale Heart.


1) Main Characters: there are three main characters:
 The mysterious narrator
 The old man with the white eye
 The Police
2) Personajes Secundarios: There are no secondary characters in
this story, as it mainly focuses on the disturbed mind of the
narrator and his relationship with the old man who has the eye
resembling that of a vulture
3) Trama: The plot revolves around what the narrator tells us, his
obsession with the extravagant eye he had as an old man, how he
committed his perfect crime and how his own heartbeat ended
up giving him away.
4) Resumen: Since the old man's obsession with the eye caused
him disgust, he decided to kill him, but then the narrator finally
confesses to the murder due to the intensity of the heartbeat in
his mind, believing that everyone can hear it. The story is an
account of his increasing madness and the mental agony he
experiences. He ends up revealing the body hidden in his home
and suggests that his confession is an attempt to get rid of the
burden of his crime.

5) Opinión Personal: Honestly, we really liked this book for how


well it manages to carry the suspense through the entire story,
another thing that I also did not miss was the mystery that
surrounds the work given that, for example, we do not
know much about the old man, who he was and what
relationship he had with his murderer
