Poes Life and his Writing


Poe Lived a very hard and harsh life, and you can see how it affected his writing. Almost all of Poe's stories deal with death or torture. In "Cask of Amontillado" fortunado is chained to granite and is left to die. In "Annabel Lee" his love dies and is buried by the sea. In "the Pit and the Pendulem" a man is tortured and is left under a blade that swung closer and closer to him each swing. Those are just a few ways of many that shows how his life affected his writing.
