rosekk 's review for:

As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
3.0

Having read one other Faulkner novel before (which I didn't like) I was kind of dreading reading this. It was better than I'd expected given how little I took to his other work, but still not the sort of thing I'd seek to read more of. There were flashes of genius where for a moment I'd understand why the book has the reputation it does, but more often than not I found myself impatiently looking forward to the end of it.
