Making connections of 2 stories" The Bridegroom" by Ha-Jin and "A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner.
Read 2 stories" The Bridegroom" by Ha-Jin and "A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner, and answer 2 questions:
1/ In spite of the very different settings and situations in “A rose for Emily” and “The Bridegroom,” what makes Miss Emily and Baowen similar?
2/ Both stories feature judgmental narrating figures. Do the stories seem to agree entirely with these narrators' opinions? Do the stories present these judgments straight, or is there some ironic distance between what the narrators say and what you think the stories themselves say?
