as depraved, disturbing, and uncomfortable as this trilogy of novels can be, they do suspend a moment in time utterly and exhaustively; exceptional character work, (including one of my favorite Faulkner characters in Linda) and expression of place. if Faulkner's goal is to capture time in a written word, I'd say he's succeeded greatly.

slow-paced
3.5
Just finished Book 3, The Mansion, completely the trilogy. The Hamlet was curious. The Town was terrible (wandering narrative, soft story), The Mansion was OK...but has a really really really terrific ending. I loved the ending. Hoping this wasn't Faulkners best work.
