A Rose for Emily

"A Rose for Emily" was a really fun story to read. It was confusing at first, but after I was done reading the whole thing it made more sense. I thought that everyone liked Miss Emily at first so I was confused until I got further into the story and everyone seemed to dislike her. It all makes sense why they came to her funeral. They just wanted to know what was going on inside the house. As we said in class, everyone knows what is going on in everyones life in small towns. So they had to be nosey and find out.
When we talked about symbols in the story i thought that her hair could have been a symbol. I'm not quite sure what her hair could mean, but it is brought up several times in the story.
