Edgar Allan Poe is a master in the use of configuration, conflict, and point of view, to help show the unique thematic message of fear.


He has always written for the reader to use his psychological part and to deduce depending on what he is reading, which does not make it easy to understand his texts at all.


The answer is: D.) Poe's writing style is plain and simple to read, with few descriptions.
