![]() ![]() Hinds' illustrations go hand in hand with the gothic tone of the original text, from the symbols of death to the twisted anguished faces. Hinds' graphic narration of The Tell-Tale Heart is a part of the 2017 graphic novel adaptation entitled Poe: Stories and Poems by Candlewick Press, Massachusetts. In this paper, I stress on the diversification of narrative corpus and appreciate the graphic adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart by Gareth Hinds. A significant difference between children's comics and graphic novels is that the latter often considered as a more mature counterpart carrying the weight and complexity of a prose narrative or otherwise they are pictorial representations intended to be enjoyed by adults that also include adaptations of classical verbal narratives. Popularly known as graphic novels, these illustrations cannot be ignored as an innovative narrative form. To appreciate graphic narratives, we need to go beyond the set of rules and re-examine the categories of narratives. Comics might be defined as a hybrid word and image form in which two narrative tracks, one verbal and one visual, register temporality spatially. ![]()
