The Sound and the Fury, by William Faulkner, is on slot number six of my 100 Greatest Novels (in the English language) list that I am working my way through.

I have trouble reading Faulkner books. As I Lay Dying is the only book by Faulkner that I have read successfully, where I could maintain interest. I think I have to stay away from Faulkner, no matter how high his work is rated in literary circles.

Sorry, William, I skimmed about 50% of this and I can’t remember a damn thing about this book.
