Rose For Emily
Thesis Poor Emily withered away just like a rose she blooms into a beautiful woman but like the rose she is unable to retain the beauty and eventually dies. Emily life was a very hard life that contributed to her psychological disaster. Her brain loses brain cells and the rose loses petals.

He prevents her from courting anyone, as "none of the younger men were quite good enough for Miss Emily and such (2).
The first indicators of Miss Emily's insanity occur in connection with her father's death. When the people came to offer their condolences and prayer, she acts like
