navik [9.2K]

In the story, “The Cask of Amontillado,” Poe's use of an unreliable narrator to tell the story heightens the uncertainty and sense of horror felt by the reader.

<h3>Who is “The Cask of Amontillado,” about?</h3>

The short story “The Cask of Amontillado” was by Edgar Allen Poe. This depicts the narrative of a man's vengeance on a buddy that he believes has been mocking him for far too long.

Montresor is the story's narrator, but he lacks credibility because he only tells the story from his own perspective.

The fallible narration through the figure of Montresor casts doubt on the story and leaving readers undecided about their sensitivities about it.

Poe's choice of an unreliable narrator to recount the story heightens the reader's sense of doubt and terror.

Therefore, option B is correct.
