Over the course of four different narrativesthree from the perspective of a different Compson brother, one from a third-person omniscient point of viewthe story maps the family's decline from Southern aristocracy to tragedy.
Originally published in 1929, William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury was the author's fourth novel. Though not initially successful, the novel has since been recognized as one of Faulkner's best works, and one of the best works of Southern literature in literary history, as well as instrumental in the development of the stream-of-consciousness literary technique. Faulkner would go on to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1949.
This new audio edition of the modernist Southern Gothic classic is narrated by Audie Award winner Pete Cross.
