  • Examples Of Suspense In A Rose For Emily

    710 Words  | 3 Pages

    “A Rose for Emily” is a unique short story that keeps the reader guessing even though its first sentence already reveals the majority of the content. William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” is the epitome of a work that follows an unconventional plot structure and a non-linear timeline, but this method of organization is intentional, as it creates suspense throughout the story. William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” follows an unusual plot structure, which creates an eccentric application of suspense to a short story. Throughout the story, there are no clear indications of standard plot structure in each section, such as intro, climax, and denouement. Instead, there are sections, which are not in chronological order, that describe a particular conflict or event, which in turn creates suspense, as each conflict builds upon each other to make the reader question the overall context and organization of the story.

    So far, I enthusiastically enjoy ATDPTI. Although I’m only about halfway through the book, I am really starting to relish the flow and plot of this book. Junior is a very interesting and relatable main character and I like how transparently the author portrays him. Not only is this book entertaining, but it also presents a very unfamiliar situation for me; living on an Indian reservation. Junior’s life shows me the struggles of living on the rez and being an Indian in general.

Through the story we are able to witness the way the couple interacts and views one another after the death of their perfect baby.

Together we are able to see the same story through two different perspectives. Emily saw potential in the relationship where as I thought it should have been over long ago.
