A Rose for Emily
Summary Analysis

A Rose for Emily was indeed an s story that has great emotional moments to it that I felt made the story stand out then the rest. The first thing I will discuss is the characters of the story the role they played for the author. I will also give a description of Emily from her younger days until her age of 74. Then reason why everyone felt so sad for Emily and what made the feelings change. Then I will discuss the event at which they discovered a dead body in the house. Lastly will be my final thoughts of the story. This story is a key story that displays deep emotions of those around you.
In this story are they’re several different characters that played a key part to collaborate each other. The first character will be the main one Miss Emily Grierson she starts out young then she works her way to death in the end at the age of 74. She was a beautiful woman during her youthful days all the man flocked to her but as she gets older very few did because she gotten fat. Also people accrued she had aggressive order that filled the area. She was very stubborn and very much a southern bell. Our next character was Colonel Sartorius he was the town’s mayor he always very light with Miss Emily due to the fact her father loan the town money prior to his passing. There was also alderman which was pretty much the town counsel. There was also a Negro the servant of Miss Emily. There was two cousins she had that was from Alabama. There was a druggist from the town’s drug store. In the middle of the story is where you meet Homer Barron a Forman to a construction company.
Next thing I will discuss is the feelings the people had of Miss Emily. During the story the emotions of the story changes several times due to what was going on. The mayor felt bad that she had to pay taxes even after her father helping by loaning the town money to get by. They also felt sorry for her due to her being by herself isolated from the outside world and because she lost her long lost sweet heart. But as time go by thing change because someone new came until into her life. At that point everyone was happy for her again because assumed now they will get married. As time passed them was sad again because people at that time assumed that he just left her after think he was getting things ready up north. But he never came back so that sadden them again. This went back and forth until the day she died.
The people of the town thought Miss Emily had a very powerful order that they smelled every day. Only because of the poor up keeping of herself and to the house. It smell dusty and moldy. The people complain to the mayor about the smell hoping that he would talk to her so she could fix it but he felt uncomfortable about the issue because of her family tides with the town. But not realizing it until the end of the story they finds out it’s a dead body that was locked away in one of the other rooms.
The event that change the story the most for me was the discovery of the smell of the area or house. It was during the funeral when everyone felt the need to go look around in the house. Bear in mind that no one ever seen different parts of the house so that explored the house. The two cousins ended finding a dead body in one of the locked rooms. Next to the body was cloths that had decayed and molded from the moisture and being sitting for so long. With that’s a decapitated head.
Lastly this story grasped my attention from beginning until the very end. At the first alderman thought she was trying to get out of paying taxes and she would reply to them to go talk with the colonel he had passed on. Then people constantly said she smell bad as so dealing with the death of her father and with her long time sweetheart left her. It was troubling times for her but isolating herself didn’t make the problem better just added on to it. People figured everything revolved around her fathers’ death with the poor up keeping of the house, herself, and the taxes. Things just seemed like it was bad and couldn’t a break for the best with issues. Until the day when she start spending time with the construction former they spent a lot of time together to the point where people assumed they was going to be married. When they wasn’t married when he left to go be they assumed he left to get things ready for them to be together. When he didn’t return things went back to assuming the worst at things. She began to isolate herself even more afterwards then she became ill until she finally passed away. The thing that got me was the part when they found the body it caught me totally off guard. This was a great story.
