In the cask of Amont...Poe is a master of artistic effect. He does not dissapoint an audience who wants to journey into the domain of fear. this tale entombs its readers in their own cellars of mentaldread. whether the story is read a an allegory on the eternal conflict between the unimaginative man and the creative artist, of simply as a self portrait of two aspects of Poe himself, it is stil one of his most briliantly written tales.
