    … as a German Biologist - 1970…
    In 10 th Grade in our German High School -
    we had an over ambitious English Teacher
    making us read this story.
    It instantly impacted me -
    even with our poor English and ignorance
    The words sound like Music…
    Until this moment…

      That's very impressive. The vocabulary is quite advanced. I wonder how many adults in the USA could understand all of the language.
      I read it circa 1975 or '76, when I was maybe 8 years old. I didn't understand many of the words, but I found it compelling.

I'm a bit disappointed because neither of the tellings had cozy, happy endings but I shouldn't have expected that. Lol. Thanks for reading!

    Everyone should have read it at least three times before listening to the audiobook. However good interpretation may it be, it never ever paints the picture on the canvas of imagination, as unique perspective of the reader's personal emotions shaped by one's life experience would. We are getting way too lazy.

      I think so far it's done a good job of staying true to the poem while also having its own spin on things. I do agree I hate remakes and such, but some of them are okay. This being one.

    • @Soup_of_goop
      @Soup_of_goop Год назад +2

      I actually really like the execution of the Netflix series. It takes ideas from many of Poe's works and wraps them together into this larger story. I personally am not super familiar with Poe's poems except for a couple I read in school. But from what I know almost every major character is named after someone from Poe's stories, and if you know the works going in you could see their fates coming and how they've been changed to fit this setting.

    • @Ali-po9le
      @Ali-po9le Год назад +1

      @Soup_of_goop so much from his works were intertwined with the story, the poem Annabelle Lee, lenore dying young. That murders of rue morgue, the black cat, obviously the raven lol. The tell tale heart. Soooo many stories I absolutely loved it. Even the jester is in one of his poems. Perry's name and his whole story. The name of their mom is poes actual moms name the cats name was Pluto, and that was poes cats real name. Arthur pyms expedition... like everything in that whole show was somehow connected to either poe or his works.

  • @mamawray
    @mamawray 7 месяцев назад

    Never cared for this tale. I like most of Poe's work but this story is all tone, flat characters and almost no plot. Dull by comparison with Hop-Frog, Mask of the Red Death, Pit and the Pendulum, The Black Cat, Cask of Amontillado and Tell-Tale Heart.
    I appreciate this recording, because I needed to "re-read" the text (I've read it several times over the years) and I don't think I could have forced myself to actually read it yet again.
