Faulkner, an American writer, and Su Tong, a Chinese writer, are both influential writers of their country. Their works have strong regional and cultural characteristics and all express the author’s southern complex. Faulkner’s A Rose for Emily tells the tragic fate of Emily, the last aristocrat of Southern Jefferson town after the civil war. Su Tong describes the tragedy of Opium Family in Feng Yang Shu Village after China’s war of liberation. Both writers write about the southern region of the United States or China, and construct a social and cultural picture of the south for readers.
