valesatt's review against another edition

Adolescenza è il racconto più bello dei tre.
Raccolta che viene spesso consigliata per approcciarsi all'autore.
Non mi trovo d'accordo.
Leggere questi racconti per farsi un'idea su Faulkner è come dire di aver conosciuto Dosto attraverso Le notti bianche.

My mileage has varied on Faulkner’s longer stuff, only a reflection on my inadequacies as a reader, but this is certainly my speed. The elegance of the Russian nesting doll of memories, the arc and development of the town and its character, the gothic unease. Haunting and sad.
