The Black Cat is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe which was published in 1843. The story explores many of the same dark themes such as murder, guilt and insanity that Poe covers in many of his other short stories. Just like The Tell-Tale Heart, The Black Cat is a first-person narrative from the point of view of the murderer. It is also similar to The Cask of Amontillado in that the murderer hides his victims behind a wall. The story also explores the horrors of alcoholism and how it can affect someone.
