In the story the black cat. there are several
types of blindness on display in this story. Obviously, the two cats were partially blind, but the narrator also suffered from a sort of blindness. How so? What warning might Poe be trying to deliver to the audience in this story?
I think Poe is warning us about violence here; the man in the story does not only become more irritable, but he manifests this through violence and cruelty towards both his animals and his wife.
