Beschreibung

The Sound and the Fury is a novel by William Faulkner, first published in 1929. It's widely regarded as one of the most important works of 20th-century American literature, known for its experimental narrative techniques, particularly the use of stream of consciousness. The novel tells the story of the decline of the Compson family, a once-prominent Southern family in Mississippi.

William Faulkner (1897–1962) was one of the most influential American writers of the 20th century. He was born in Mississippi, and much of his work is set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, a richly detailed world based on the American South.
Faulkner's writing is known for its complex narrative techniques, such as stream of consciousness, multiple perspectives, and nonlinear timelines.
