(Please help, I would really appreciate it) Read the following excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart” and answer the question. “It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture--a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees—very gradually—I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye for ever.” Which of the following analyses of the excerpt is the best textual evidence that the narrator is unreliable?
