“Wonder. Go on and wonder.”
The Sound and the Fury is the tragedy of the Compson family.

Not rating because I think I should read it again someday when I have more time.
Second Faulkner book I've read, and his style is definitely not for me. Painful, convoluted read. Not my thing.
absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. such a difficult read, but one that i enjoyed nonetheless. would love to own a physical copy of this!
Full disclosure I didn't finish this book, I read Benji's section the end and maybe a dozen pages of Quintin's.
Two stars for interesting writing style and concept but ultimately I just don't want to spend the hours required to read the inner thoughts of a suicidal Harvard student and his older brother who is a complete jerk.
