    “A Rose for Emily” and “The Lottery” In “A Rose for Emily” narrator was an observer. He was part of the villagers but not the main character.

    On my first reading of Charlotte Perkins Gilman ’s "The Yellow Wallpaper"‚ I found the short story extremely well done and the author‚ successful at getting her idea across.
