Welcome to Celebrate Poe - episode 234 - Spinning Tops, Part Two
In this episode, Celebrate Poe continues its examination of some of Poe’s works against the background of Christopher Nolan’s movie - Inception.
First, it is important to remember that many of Poe's tales are narrated by characters with questionable sanity or motives. Stories like "The Tell-Tale Heart" leave readers unsure of what truly happened or if the narrator's perception can be trusted.
The majority of this episode deals with observations regarding Poe and Inception, and ends with the topic of motifs - a good example is the symbolic use of water in Inception, and the sea in Poe’s Annabel Lee.
