So if he were to somehow be placed into the community in “A Rose for Emily‚” where all those characters are rather lenient‚ things would become a lot more intense. Additionally‚ if Mrs. Turpin from “Revelation”‚ was to be brought into to live in the same community with the ladies in “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World”‚ opinions
