W 1976 William Faulkner, Franklin Library Edition

Notes

The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner is a groundbreaking novel that tells the story of the Compson family in the American South, exploring themes of decay, family, and the passage of time. The narrative is known for its innovative use of stream-of-consciousness technique and is presented through multiple perspectives, including those of the troubled Benjy Compson, the disillusioned Quentin Compson, and the pragmatic Jason Compson. The novel's fragmented structure and shifting viewpoints offer a profound exploration of the characters' inner lives and the impact of their circumstances. The Sound and the Fury is considered one of Faulkner's masterpieces and a cornerstone of modernist literature.
