"For all his concern with the South, Faulkner was actually seeking out the nature of man. Thus we must turn to him for that continuity of moral purpose which made for the greatness of our classics." - Ralph Ellison

  • JEWEL'S MOTHER IS A HORSE!!!!!!!!!

  • i have to do a book reading of this tomorrow and I've only made it to page 97

  • juciest lips i ve ever seen on youtube!!!!

  • In English class we were assigned various books this semester. I just finished "In Our Time" by Hemingway and the next book is "As I Lay Dying". I'm starting to think that the juxtaposition of (what I feel) easy to hard is the professor playing a cruel joke on us.

  • Well, Faulkner's language/prose is complex because the characters that "speak" to you, the readers, are complex. The language is a manifestation of their undulating psyche on printed pages.

  • Well, I am reading through this. It's funny to be honest with you, darkly humorous.

    The part where Darl and Cash suspect their brother Jewel is sneaking out in the nights to do something immoral is superbly well-done and surprising. Faulkner plays with our expectations and shatters them like a bash from a hammer...and there is that Vardaman...

  • How come you stopped doing book reviews?

  • Hi Katina, you reviewed the book perfectly, and you are extremely hot, just the perfect combination, good literature and good looks ;)
