we completed the assignment for the first part of A rose for emily.The first part of "A Rose for Emily" sets the stage by describing Emily Grierson's funeral, attended by the curious townspeople of Jefferson. The narrative voice, representing the town's collective perspective, recounts the history of the Grierson family and their once-grand home that has now fallen into disrepair. It's revealed that Emily had been a recluse in her later years, and the community saw her as a stubborn holdout from a bygone era. The section ends with a flashback to an incident 30 years prior, when the townspeople detected a foul odor coming from Emily's property, leading to a discreet sprinkling of lime around her house by town officials to neutralize the smell.
