description: This Edgar Allan Poe classic is a first-person account of a younger man's obsession with an old man's eye. This eye serves as the catalyst for the narrator's carefully-planned plot to kill the old man. The narrator betrays his subsequent, overwhelming guilt as he retells, in chilling detail, his difficulty in silencing the audible beating of his victim's heart. The Discis Book brings this classic tale to life. You can ask the VIS system to "read" your favorite passages, or to explain or pronounce unfamiliar words. Readers can easily customize the Discis Books experience with a wide range of educational options. For example, on-line questions are available for further exploration of the text. These questions stimulate the reader's curiosity and critical thinking. Subsequently, a commentary is given in the context of the paragraph and the book, and is an in-depth variation on the explanations which are provided for every word and term in a Discis Book. For teenage and adult readers. Primary Text in English, optional audio background in Spanish.
