Questions to William Faulkner's A Rose for Emily

1. What is the effect of the final paragraph of the story? How does it contribute to your understanding of Emily? What is it important that we get this information last rather than at the beginning of the story?

2. Discuss how Faulkner's treatment of the North and South contributes to the meaning of the story.

3. Contrast the order of events as they happen in the story with the order in which they are told. How does this plotting create interest and suspense?
