Who is the round character in “A Rose for Emily”?
A round character is a major character in a fictional work who encounters conflict and experiences change. They are also fully developed. You should pick the obvious, Emily Grierson. She experiences the loss of her overprotective father, insanity in her family and the constant change in the town around her. It is, in fact, ironic that her resistance to change as the town modernizes is what sets her apart as a developed character. She refuses to be molded by the possibility of change, even resorting to act of murder to keep a loved one close.
