Cask of amontillado rising action

The correct answer is when Montresor brings fortunate to his catacombs to taste his Amontillado, an expensive type of wine.

Short and simple story, Cask of amontillado, by Edgar Alan Poe, is the narrative of the story of a man imbued with the desire for revenge and to wall his alive adversary, Fortunato. The beginning of the story already shows the determined character of the narrator: I endured the best I could with Fortunato's injuries, but when he dared to insult me, I swore revenge. This economy of words that sometimes suppresses details and descriptions ends up simplifying the narrative, creating tension in the reader and surprising him with the rapidity of the plot's development. In Cask of amontillado the focus is on the facts themselves and the psychological conditioning of the characters. The reader's curiosity and involvement with the dynamic text make the story have a "unique effect" when the storyline reaches its climax. The reader goes through a catharsis, experiences the feelings of the characters and identifies with them.
