Rare and Wonderful Stories
Edgar Allan Poe and William Faulkner are both very succesful authors. They write about mystery in short stories or poems. We can relate some of there stories with one and other. This time we are going to compared the stories ‘A Rose for Emily’ and ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’.
Mystery stories are always fun and entertaining to people. Two mystery stories from hilarious authors are ‘A Rose for Emily’ and ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’. We can say that both are mysterious loving stories. And they both have a lot of similarities. It’s interesting how stories have that certain way of getting deep in to us.
‘A Rose For Emily’ describes to this white woman who the whole town looks up to, that when her father died was left alone in her house and starts dating a black man. But one day people saw the man walk into the house and never came out. At the end of the story, it turns out that Emily killed the man and slept with his corpse. But the mystery is left at why she did that. And the story ‘The House Of The Fall Of Usher’ is about an old man and her sister that are mentally really ill and live in a house that is really falling apart, they called a childhood friend to help them with the house but at the end they all died except the friend and when they die the house fall apart completely.
In both stories we can experience the suspense that the author is giving us by being a mystery why Emily killed that man, and why does the house fall apart when their owner die. They are both really complex stories that have to be read more than once to comprehend them. They in a certain way are about family love and their past as you can see when the father of Emily dies she’s upset because she cared about him, and in Usher’s story he is really caring for her sister’s mental condition. Another really important thing is the author from both stories; ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ by: Edgar Allan Poe and ‘A Rose for Emily’ by: William Faulkner. They have both childhood stories that can relate the writing they did.
We can conclude that both stories needed a lot of imagination from the author. But most of all the stories let us thinking or asking question that are never going to be answered because that’s why these kind or stories are so good and it is why people like them.
