Publisher's Summary

The bloody-minded Montresor leads the pompous Fortunato deep into the catacombs, seeking the famed Amontillado wine. Here we have one of Poe’s most terrifying, and most “beloved” tales. Revenge and pomposity commingle beneath the river’s bed, leading to a delightfully sinister conclusion.

Brilliant Short Story

This is a classic tale about a murder. it's a dastardly exposition on ruthlessness with a series of psychological expositions. The performance is exceptional. This is a brilliant story - and a brilliant recording of the story- 5 stars
