Explanation:
"The Black Cat" is a short story written by the American writer Edgar Allan Poe, that tells the story of a man that was condemned for killing his wife and hiding the body. This story begins with the narrator explaining he will die the following day, but he does not believe he is mad and then he is trying to let the world known what happened. This implies, in the beginning, the reader knows the narrator and main character will die the following day, but no clue is given in the beginning on the reasons why he will die. Thus, the information the narrator is not providing at the beginning of the story and that create suspense and engage the reader to continue reading is that the narrator believes he will die the following day, but does not explain the events that caused this, which are killing his wife and hiding the body.
