The Tell-Tale Heart In Edgar Allan Poe's story, The Telltale Heart, what is it that the heart tells? Asked by gmonk on 13 Jun 13:38 Last updated by anonymous on 31 Mar 01:45
The sound of the heart beat seems to be telling the police the entire story. In other words, the guilty conscience, or the madness within the killer, force him to confess that he has killed the old man and hidden him under the floorboards.
