The Sound and the Fury

Told through four shattering points of view, including Benjy, whose mind cannot separate past from present, and Quentin, counting down the hours to his own destruction, William Faulkner's 1929 masterpiece traces the slow collapse of the Compson family, once-proud aristocrats of the American South. Shifting between fractured memory and unbearable present-tense grief, the novel circles the family's ruin around the absent, elusive Caddy, the sister whose fall from grace haunts every brother left behind. A landmark of literary modernism and one of the most demanding, rewarding novels in American fiction, The Sound and the Fury rewired what a novel could do with time and voice. This Chronicle Vault edition presents the complete, unabridged text in a clean, fully reflowable format for all e-readers.
