How does Poe's use of unreliable first-person narrators affect our reception of his stories (refer to at least 2-3 stories)? In general, Poe uses first-person viewpoints in stories such as The Cask of Amontillado, The Tell-Tale Heart, and Ligeia because the subjectivity inherent in a first-person account emphasizes human fallibility while adding a layer of confusion and darkness to the narration.
