Narrated in stream of consciousness, The Sound and the Fury introduces such memorable characters as the autistic Benjy, rebellious Caddy, obsessed Quentin, and wealth-seeking Jason, as well as their black servant Dilsey. In the telling of their own personal stories, each character reveals the events behind the decline of their family and the loss of their money, faith, respect, and each other. Faulkner's fourth novel, and sixth on the Modern Library's list of 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century, The Sound and the Fury did not become successful until the publication of The Sancturary, Faulkner's sixth novel, in 1931. It then received great critical success and contributed to William Faulkner's 1949 Nobel Prize in Literature. The Sound and the Fury takes its name from a passage from William Shakespeare's Macbeth.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C979985</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C979985</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/979985037</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Unvanquished]]></title><description><![CDATA[Set in Mississippi during the Civil War and Reconstruction, The unvanquished focuses on the Sartoris family, who, with their code of personal responsibility and courage, stand for the best of the Old South's traditions.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1728210</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1728210</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1728210037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Light in August]]></title><description><![CDATA[A novel about hopeful perseverance in the face of mortality, features some of Faulkner's most memorable characters: guileless, dauntless Lena Grove, in search of the father of her unborn child; Reverend Gail Hightower, who is plagued by visions of Confederate horesemen; and Joe Christmas, a desperate, enigmatic drifter consumed by his mixed ancestry.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1728204</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1728204</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 1952 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1728204037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Snopes Trilogy]]></title><description><![CDATA[This special epub edition includes all three of William Faulkner's Snopes novels: The Hamlet, The Town and The Mansion, which follow the lives of the larger-than-life fictional Snopes family of Mississippi. The novels The Hamlet and The Town document the town of Jefferson and its environs as members of the Snopes family, headed by Flem Snopes, manipulate themselves into prominence within the community. In the trilogy's concluding novel, The Mansion, Flem's Machiavellian worldview puts him at risk when the consequences of his life finally begin to catch up to him. Written during and after the Second World War, the Snopes novels explore themes about post-war life and economy, class struggles, and racial tensions in the American South. The Hamlet was loosely adapted into the film The Long, Hot Summer featuring Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C841855</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C841855</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/841855037</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three Famous Short Novels]]></title><description><![CDATA[These short works offer three different approaches to Faulkner, each representative of his work as a whole. "Spotted Horses" is a hilarious account of a horse auction, and pits the "cold practicality" of women against the boyish folly of men. "Old Man" is something of an adventure story. When a flood ravages the countryside of the lower Mississippi, a convict finds himself adrift with a pregnant woman. And "The Bear," perhaps his best known shorter work, is the story of a boy's coming to terms with the adult world. By learning how to hunt, the boy is taught the real meaning of pride, humility, and courage.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C841868</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C841868</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/841868037</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Sound and the Fury]]></title><description><![CDATA[First published in 1929, Faulkner created his "heart's darling," the beautiful and tragic Caddy Compson, whose story Faulkner told through separate monologues by her three brothers--the idiot Benjy, the neurotic suicidal Quentin and the monstrous Jason.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1039467</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1039467</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2003 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1039467037</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Novels 1942-1954]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1649863</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1649863</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 1994 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1649863037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Novels, 1936-1940]]></title><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1649864</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1649864</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Faulkner, William, 1897-1962]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 1990 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1649864037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go Down, Moses, and Other Stories]]></title><description><![CDATA[This title includes seven dramatic stories which reveal Faulkner's compassionate understanding of the Deep South.

Featuring forty-seven writers from twenty different nations, representing all the main participants in the conflict, No Man's Land is a truly international anthology of First World War fiction. Work by Siegfried Sassoon, Erich Maria Remarque, Willa Cather and Rose Macaulay sits alongside forgotten masterpieces such as Stratis Myrivilis's Life in the Tomb, Raymond Escholier's Mahmadou Fofana and Mary Borden's The Forbidden Zone.
