Point of View Practice
THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitely, settled --but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. I must not only punish but punish with impunity.

reading the story – “Why are people motivated by revenge? Is revenge ever okay?” Have your thoughts on this changed since reading the story?
Montressor never explains just why he hates Fortunato?What do you think of Fortunato? Was he deserving of what came to him?
Poe uses a first person narrator here, and Poe has been known for his unreliable narrators. Do you find the narrator reliable or unreliable?
What is your general impression of Montressor? What makes him a villain? How is he like other villains in TV and movies? Does he possess any qualities that you find likeable or admirable?
