"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.
