A_Rose_For_Emily

A Rose For Emily A Rose for Emily, must be the last rose that was presented to Emily’s lifeless body in her eternal state. This story from my perspective, paints a picture in my mind on how Miss Emily Grierson’s life unfolds from a third person’s point of view. The story starts off with Emily being kept in her house by her father. Emily’s father eventually dies and Emily cannot let go of her father’s ephemeral life. Emily stays inside the house for a period of time until she eventually musters the courage to go outside where she meets Homer Barron, a homosexual. Emily and Homer ride around town in his buggy leading everybody in town to think that she will marry him. Suddenly Homer disappears and is not seen again until the end of the story, where Homer’s lifeless body is found in Emily’s home. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the story using the moral and intellectual approach method. According to what I read, the moral of the story is; you should let go if a loved one passes away. That is why as human beings we go through bereavement.
