The conversation between human and AI assistant.
What does the watch symbolize in Edgar Allan Poe's the Tell-Tale Heart?
Yes, please. Can you explain how the narrator's eye is a symbol as well?
Of course! The narrator's eye is a symbol of the old man's humanity and individuality. By obsessing over the eye and ultimately destroying it, the narrator is erasing this unique aspect of the old man and reducing him to just a mere object to be disposed of. Additionally, the eye also represents the narrator's own guilt and the paranoia that others might see right through him.
