When she received the tax notices in the mail she simply through them into the garbage or mailed them right back without response. It also showed me that she could be very demanding.Д®mily did many things that made her character seem stubborn and crazy. I don?t care what kind.? (Faulkner, 145) This gave me the impression that she was a little crazy and that it was possible that she was dangerous. ?I want some poison?I want the best you have. The second incident that showed Emily was stubborn and a little crazy was when she went to that pharmacy to buy some poison. She told the alderman to leave and that was the end of it. I have no taxes in Jefferson.? (Faulkner, 143) This was the first time Faulkner showed how stubborn Emily could be. Emily believed so much that she was right that she continued to say ?see Colonel Sartoris. When he told her she had to pay her taxes Emily simply said ?I have no taxes in Jefferson.?(Faulkner, 142) The gentleman continued insisting that she pay her taxes. Because she had refused to send any money to pay her taxes an alderman had shown up at her door to settle the situation. At this point in time Colonel Sartoris had been dead and there was no recollection in the cities files of what he had told her. One of the events that happened was when Emily received a tax notice in the mail telling her that she has to pay her taxes. Faulkner manages to show this through different events that happen in the story and how she reacts towards them. He develops this through many things but the main thing was by her actions to different situations and the way she lived her life This essay is going to talk about the things she said, did and about what other people said about her.Д®mily Grierson?s is an old lady who is very stubborn. Faulkner portrayed Emily?s character to be very Stubborn and by the end made people think she was crazy. He told her that her father had lent the town some money and because of it in a way of paying her back all of her taxes were remitted. Emily a very stubborn old lady who refused to pay her taxes because of a little tale that Colonel Sartoris who was the mayor at the time had told her. The story was about a old and troubled woman named Emily Grierson who because of her father?s death had become one of the towns obligation?s and also one of it?s problems. The story A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner in my opinion was a very interesting story.
