Rose For Emily Emily Grierson
1,250 wordsA Rose For Emily was written by William Faulkner in 1931. Not only is this story sad, and in the end a bit horrific, but it appears to be somewhat autobiographical.

Some indications of this relationship can be found in the characters and the setting. Mr. Faulkner seemed to be at a low point in his life when he wrote this short stor...
