Light In August Sound And The Fury
1,060 wordsWhat Time Is It? Faulkner's Representation of Time Faulkner's representation of time in As I Lay Dying, Light in August, and The Sound and the Fury is tangled and inconsistent.

Why does Faulkner make the reader reach so far just to understand a story? Why do people read Faulkner if it is so dense and far-reaching...
