THE SOUND AND THE FURY

THE SOUND AND THE FURY William Faulkner Books Faulkner wrote, the one he thought most highly of in later years was The Sound and the Fury. Here he portrays with startling realism the lives of some of the most famous characters in American literature, the Compson family: Benjy, the idiot man child’ Quentin, the young man who cannot come to terms with his heritage; Jason, the cold, brutal realist; Caddy, the rebellious girl loved by her brothers; and Dilsey, their black servant whom Faulkner called “one of my own favourite characters.” Most critics agree that this stunning narrative of the dissolution of the Compson family is one of the most remarkable novels of the twentieth century.
