Ever since the first furore was created on its publication in 1929, The Sound and the Fury has been considered one of the key novels of this century. Depicting the gradual disintegration of the Compson family through four fractured narratives, the novel explores intense, passionate family relationships where there is no love, only self-centredness. At its heart, this is a novel about lovelessness

The masterpiece of Nobel Prize winner William Faulkner, and perhaps the greatest novel about the decline of the Southern aristocracy, now in Penguin Classics for the first time, with a new introduction by Ayana Mathis, the New York Times bestselling author of The Twelve Tribes of Hattie One of The Atlantic's Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition, with flaps and deckle-edged paper The Sound and the Fury traces the downfall of the aristocratic Compson family in their fictional home of Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi. Here the landed gentry of the Reconstruction-era South still cling to their obsolete constructs of race, class, and sex for salvation from financial and personal ruin. In kaleidoscopic prose, Faulkner relates the Compson siblings' tales of their own demise: Benjy, the brother whose mental disability blends the past with the present; Quentin, who is consumed by his obsession with his family's honor; Jason, whose blind rage inflicts itself upon the rest of the household; and the elusive sister, Caddy, whose tragic exile from the family sets in motion their fall from grace. The Sound and the Fury brings to life Faulkner's South as a land of poverty and decadence, of gallantry and greed, that reveals the rich cultural and historical context in which it was written. What Faulkner once considered his "most splendid failure" was also his favorite of his novels and is now one of the cornerstones of American literature.

Union Square Co.

Faulkner's harrowing account of the Bundren family's trek across the Mississippi countryside, freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Editions line. Faulkner's fifth novel follows a grim yet darkly humorous pilgrimage, as Addie Bundren's family sets out to fulfill her final wish: to be buried in her native Jefferson, Mississippi, far from the miserable backwater surroundings of her married life. Told through the perspective of multiple family members, including Addie herself, As I Lay Dying vividly brings to life Faulkner's recurring Yoknapatawpha County, one of literature's great invented landscapes, and is replete with the poignant, impoverished, violent, and hypnotically fascinating characters that were his trademark. An influential novel of the Modernism literary movement in narrative structure, style, and characterization, Faulkner employs 15 different points of view and a stream-of-consciousness technique that depicts each characters' psychological hardships. Ranging in tone from dark comedy, to deepest pathos, As I Lay Dying is a tour de force that captures the heart of the American South during the Great Depression and encompasses the work of a master at the height of his craft.

William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury is a masterpiece of modernist literature, renowned for its complexity and emotional depth. Set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi, the novel delves into the turbulent world of the Compson family, unraveling their fall from grace and the impact of time on memory, identity, and loss.What makes this work extraordinary is Faulkner's innovative narrative structure, which defies traditional storytelling. The novel is divided into four distinct sections, each told from the perspective of different characters-Benjy, a mentally disabled man; Quentin, a troubled and introspective student; Jason, an embittered and cynical brother; and the omniscient third-person narrator who attempts to tie the story together. Through fragmented time shifts, unreliable perceptions, and streams of consciousness, Faulkner masterfully portrays the internal struggles of each character, presenting a haunting exploration of the human condition.The Sound and the Fury weaves themes of disintegration-of family, tradition, and the Southern way of life-amidst the emotional chaos of love, betrayal, and memory. With its intricate narrative style and profound emotional resonance, it challenges readers to interpret its layers of meaning, ultimately offering a tragic and poignant vision of the past's irreversible influence on the present. It's a novel that demands engagement, reflection, and, ultimately, deep admiration for Faulkner's daring artistry.

A complex, intense American novel of family from the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. It employs several narrative styles, including stream of consciousness.
