About this listen

Read by a woman, this rendition of the Poe classic stands out among the others. Nothing in the text suggests that the narrator is a man. How does the meaning shift when the narrator is a woman? What was the relationship between the narrator and the old man? Have a listen.

Classic Short Story

Another Astounding tale of murder.

One of Poe's best explorations into murder and guilt.

Unfortunately, this is an adequate performance at best

The Female reader doesn't fit as well as other recordings, but does a fair job with an outstanding short story. 3 stars out of 5
