But why will you say that I am mad?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn “The Cask of Amontillado,” a man exacts revenge on a disloyal friend at carnival, luring him into catacombs below the city. In “The Masque of the Red Death,” a prince shielding himself from plague hosts a doomed party inside his abbey stronghold. A prisoner of the Spanish Inquisition, faced with a swinging blade and swarming rats, can’t see his tormentors in “The Pit and the Pendulum,” and in “The Tell-Tale Heart,” a milky eye and a deafening heartbeat reveal the effects of conscience and creeping madness. Alongside these tales are visual interpretations of three poems — “The Raven,” “The Bells,” and Poe’s poignant elegy to lost love, “Annabel Lee.”  The seven concise graphic narratives, keyed to thematic icons, amplify and honor the timeless legacy of a master of gothic horror.","brand":"Gareth Hinds","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":46249782509780,"sku":"9780763695095","price":23.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/9208\/files\/BNCImageAPI_dfd4b154-a542-4c71-a554-398737207cbd.jpg?v=1745863740","url":"https:\/\/penguinshop.ca\/products\/9780763695095","provider":"Penguin Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
