Author William Faulkner's plot in his short story, "A Rose for Emily," basically serves to tell the life story of Miss Emily Grierson, a member of one of the venerable families in the mythical Mississippi town of Jefferson. Faulkner's story line jumps around in time, creating a somewhat confusing sequence of events. However, we learn that Emily has had a strict father who allows her little freedoms growing up, and he looks down upon most (if not all) of her suitors. Emily has few friends, and when her father died, she refuses to allow his body to be removed until forced to do so by authorities. She lives alone in the aging family home, served only by a Negro manservant. Emily eventually courts the visiting Yankee foreman, Homer Barron, spurring gossip throughout the town when it is believed that they are to be married. Homer disappears and the townspeople assume that the relationship is over. Then, a mysterious smell pervades the grounds of the Grierson house. Little is seen of Emily for years, and she retreats to the solitude of her house until her death, when authorities discover a terrible secret. ( THAT TOOK FOREVER ) but there u go!

Justify Gopal's action of changing his appearance by quoting instances from the lesson to authenticate your answer? Hurry plz. G
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Gopal's action of changing his appearance is a good decision because he succeeded in bringing the Hilsa fish to the palace without anyone asking him about it because they were all focused on his appearance.

Explanation:

In order to take up the challenge given by the king, Gopal shaved his face, smeared himself with ash and wore torn cloths. this attracted the attention of the people to his  appearance and nobody talked about the hilsa fish bought by him.

furthermore, on reaching the palace, the guards stopped him from entering, then Gopals starts singing in a loud voice and dancing too. This made the king to allow the stranger come in. even inside  the palace, no one asks about the hilsa fish including the king instead he asked about Gopal's dressing. then Gopal reminded the king of the challenge, which the king congratulates him on winning the challenge. The challenge by the king is that; The king told Gopal to buy a hilsa fish and bring it to the palace and that nobody should ask him a word about it.

Therefore, Gopal's action of changing his appearance is justified because he managed to draw people's attention to his appearance and away from the hilsa fish.
