The Truth Behind The Narrator
Although it is widely believed that "The Fall of The House of Usher" is about Usher and his disease, the truth is that the story is really about the narrator. In a sense, the narrator generally symbolizes humans and basic human actions and desires. When people first read the story "The Fall of The House of Usher" they tend to believe that the story is about Usher, his sickness, his legacy, and his sister; but if the story is examined closely evidence that suggests otherwise would be obtained, in saying so I depend on language and the close examination of words to support this idea.
