A Rose for Emily

In the short story, "A Rose for Emily," Emily is a lonely woman, who shelters herself from the community she lives in. At first, I was confused as to what the story was about, however after I finished reading it I was able to connect everything that occurred. Faulkner makes the reader think in his story, he keeps you guessing until the end. I didn't think Emily was going to kill her lover, than again I guess she felt she had no other chose because she didn't wanna be left alone.
