The Lady with the Dog has many different settings in the short story. It starts in Moscow with the male adulterer, when he vacations to Yalta he meets a women and they take several trips to nearby Oreanda. When he returns home to Moscow again he realizes that he may have fallen for this female adulterer. He then becomes obsessed and travels to her hometown while in nearby St. Petersburg. Upon meeting her he finds that she also has fallen for him and the two meet again in Moscow to discuss their future. The story manages to pack many settings in a small tale.
A Rose for Emily was an odd and dark story. The setting is simple , as it only takes place around the town of Jefferson and at The Griersons house. Emily was seen around town when she was younger but as she grows up she is never really seen. She is recluse and upon her death her house is invaded by curious townsfolk. When they arrive at her house they see that she poisoned her long time boyfriend and may have been having intimate experiences with the corpse. This story's setting is really simple in comparison to The Lady with the Dog.
