Good Man, A Rose for Emily, Yellow Wallpaper

In a "Good Man" the Misfit was grotesque, he was a bad man but you almost liked him and wanted to know more about him. The grandmother was the revised southern bell. The story was definitely tragic and colorful. I think the author was trying to show that God would even accept misfits no matter what they did. The Misfit was the classic gothic archetype. It still shows that even in this time the black-americans aren't as good as white people by saying niggers never have as nice of things. I think it also shows that the new generation of the south is disrespectful and rebellious because the little kids were terrible and bratty.

In a "Rose for Emily" Miss Emily was grotesque and the revised southern bell. The new generations were trying to take over and make Miss Emily pay her taxes but she wouldn't have any of it. Homer Barron was the Yankee that came down and eventually ended up dead. It showed that the author wasn't very fond of the north and the north was thought as lower than the south. The story was written in flashbacks and kind of hard to follow. Her aunt was the crazy one went mad in her old days. The story covers so many years and yet Miss Emily's house never seems to change.

In "Yellow Wallpaper" the plantation house was characteristic of southern gothic and the women was crazy. It didn't shed a good light on doctors, they always said nothing was wrong or didn't tell you the truth.
