ESLII Journal 27: Hints and Foreshadowing

In the story “The Tell - Tale Heart”, the narrator is also a character in the story, and he is a crazy person that all the people can feel, but that is very irony because he always tell the reader he isn't “mad”.

  We all know, he is the person that will plan to kill the person that have a blue eye, and we can also know he spend one hour to open the door and put his head into the room, and he think that is very smart behavior, that is kind of stupid and crazy. For the foreshadowing part, there is a reason that let us know what will happen in the future, it is the vulture, the vulture is kind of bird that is carnivorous animal, so it mean they like to eat meat, and the meat that eat mostly come from died body, so when I read this word in the first paragraph I can know the thing that will happen is about the death. He also can hear the voice from the haven, earth and the hell, it really also mean the death because only the die people can go the haven and the hell.
