About This Book
The Sound and the Fury (1929)
His fourth novel and his first true masterpiece, The Sound and the Fury was also Faulkner's favorite out of all his published works. This haunting and devastating account marks the beginning of the Compson saga in which we witness the aristocratic family's demise. Divided into four sections told from four different perspectives, the book is both a notoriously arduous and disturbing read, whose often disorienting narration requires patience and persistence, and whose subject matter confronts painful themes, among which reside incest and suicide. A true tale of endurance and human suffering which will stay with readers for a very long time indeed
