Read the following excerpt from "The Cask of Amontillado" and answer question.
aliina [53]
As a narrator, Montresor can best be described as an unreliable narrator.

Explanation:

In most cases involving reading and/or literature, an unreliable narrator refers to a narrator who cannot be depended on or trusted. This is typically present in first person narration. In “The Cask of Amontillado,” Montresor is most viewed as an unreliable narrator because for one, he’s a character in the story he is narrating, which already deems his perspective to be likely to be untrue. Additionally, he has a set view of Fortunato that is biased. This is shown where he says that Fortunato wronged him, but the way that Fortunato wronged him is never explicitly mentioned in the story. To add to this, the plot of the story overall clearly displays Montresor’s manipulation. If you ask me, it seems he was the one who wronged Fortunato. The narrator also does not reveal everything about the past and what May have led him to say Fortunato wronged him. Because of this misconception, Montresor is seen as an unreliable narrator.
