I expected that it would be a melancholic love story where the partners cannot meet because of a person but really this story was about the conflict of traditions. And it wasn’t really melencholic but instead it was more of a depressing story with dark/negative images.

In the story the Homer Barron dies because Emily cannot cope with the traditions. It is really ironic because I believe that the ridget body of traditions always start and end in the mind so the death of him was never a necessity if Emily could find the will to change her mind. So I ask all of us.

is it really that important what others think even if it results in death?

İsn’t the life of a person worth change your own point of view?
