Answer:

I find it depressing just my opinion oh and for the people that didnt read it heres a short summary

Explanation:

“A Rose for Emily” was among Faulkner’s first published stories. Like many of Faulkner’s stories, it takes place in fictional Yoknapatawpha County, located in Faulkner’s home state of Mississippi. Setting so many of his stories in one location allows him to treat this community in depth, which in turn allows Yoknapatawpha County to stand in as a credible microcosm for the American South at large.

The town of Jefferson as represented in “A Rose for Emily” is an insular one. The only outsider is Homer Barron, a Northerner, and his death is caused as much by Emily as by the druggist who sold her the arsenic, and by the townspeople who watched murder happen with bemused indifference. As a result, the town itself has a crypt-like staleness. The “we” of the narrative reinforces the closed space of the story, in which any outsider is treated with scorn. Within this sealed tomb of a story, from the name of the town, Jefferson, to the first residents mentioned in the story, the town that the living occupy is likewise filled with the bodies and memories of the dead. Emily may live with the dead in a horrific and quite literal way, but, as depicted by Faulkner, she is a product of the death-obsessed and backward-looking culture that made her.
