What if the promise of one perfect vintage became the price of your life? Edgar Allan Poe's The Cask of Amontillado stands as literature's ultimate lesson in revenge served stone-cold. First published in 1846, this razor-edged tale traps readers in the claustrophobic mind of Montresor, whose wounded pride demands a punishment "unredressed" for the flamboyant Fortunato.
