The Pit and the Pendulum

Leírás

Known as Poe’s most historically accurate thriller, readers will get a healthy dosage of history. But don’t let “short story” fool you, because the Pit and the Pendulum is a deep read that may prove challenging. So finishing it will certainly be a satisfying reward, with all the probing into the despair and darkness. Death can’t possibly seem more real and imminent than it does in the Pit and the Pendulum.
