Answer:

The important point in this type of narrative is that narrator tells the story from his/her perspective, which is actually the main subject that I am going to study with the help of “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe. The first-person narration is one of the strongest tools for creating suspense in the narrative.

In “The Black Cat,” Poe created a narrator who lacks remorse, empathy, and a conscience, a character who deceives and manipulates those around him because of an impulsive, egocentric personality known as psychopathy.

Also

The narrator has major issues. This unnamed character is an abusive bully and a murderer. He made home a living hell for his wife, pets, and himself. He's writing to us from his prison cell, on the eve of his scheduled death by hanging.

Why do you think the Terrible Things take away the animals one group at a time?

Alex73 [517]

<span>his book basically represents what happened during the holocaust ... just in a different form. The terrible things (a.k.a. the Nazis) take away the animals (a.k.a. the different groups of people persecuted during the holocaust) one at a time because it was easy. The Nazis in real life did the same thing. By taking groups one at a time no large uproar was caused. If they had taken more animals, there might have been a larger negative reaction and possibly a revolt. The animals were able to justify the other animals being taken away, and by justifying the terrible thing's reasoning and actions they made it easier for the terrible things to continue. As for the last question ... often people do not listen to one lone voice in a crowd, especially one that in young and supposedly "inexperienced." Unfortunately for us, children are often able see things in a different and more "black and white" light, and by not listening to what they have to say we all lose out. H</span>

The TWO sentences that best describe a central theme of the text are:
