Complex tapestry of Southern decay and fragmentation.

"The Sound and the Fury" is not just a novel; it’s an immersive experience into the decline of the Southern aristocracy through the eyes of the Compson family. Faulkner’s use of stream-of-consciousness narration might initially disorient you, but it's exactly what makes the book so penetrating and innovative. You'll explore themes of time, memory, and loss in a way that’s both intimate and bewildering, mirroring the chaos of the characters' lives. It's a challenging read, but diving into Faulkner’s world is deeply rewarding for those who appreciate literature that reshapes how you think about storytelling.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

The Sound and the Fury is the tragedy of the Compson family, featuring some of the most memorable characters in literature: beautiful, rebellious Caddy; the manchild Benjy; haunted, neurotic Quentin; Jason, the brutal cynic; and Dilsey, their black servant. Their lives fragmented and harrowed by history and legacy, the character’s voices and actions mesh to create what is arguably Faulkner’s masterpiece and one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
