    The characters in “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner can relate to the characters in Plato’s “Myth of the Cave”.

In both stories‚ the characters experience a sort of self-inflicted isolation.

    Briar Rose

    • 592 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Briar Rose is centered around one woman’s Holocaust experience and intermixed with the classic fairy-tale‚ Sleeping Beauty. Yolen’s uses of classic fairy-tale elements such as a prince and the curse of a long sleep are used to connect us to the horrors of the death camp Chelmno. The result is a story that is fresh and shocking as it tears away any of the numbness one may feel for another account of a Holocaust survivor. Suddenly the fairy-tale ideas of rescue and evil are invested with modern connotations
