Have learned essential principles of stylistics, I can proceed to the analysis of some story. I chose a short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe.
I like this American author, his style of writing. His most recurring themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the effects of decomposition, concerns of premature burial, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning. Many modern books and movies have "borrowed" ideas from Poe.
Most people recognize Poe by his famous poem, "The Raven". Others may have read one of his more popular dark and creepy tales like, "The Fall of the House of Usher", "The Black Cat" and also "The Tell-Tale Heart".
His stories make your heart to beat faster, make you not to breath, they always keep you in suspense.
I have read a lot of Poe's terrifying stories, because this genre is my favourite one. And I hope that I'll find pleasure in reading this story ant it will leave only a good impressions.
