As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
4.0

I can’t wait to discuss this book with my seniors- I love the variety of points of view involved in this book, but it became overwhelming at times to keep track. I love the stream of consciousness writing as well as the secrets along the odyssey. I haven’t read it since I was in high school, so it was great to pick up again and analyze in an AP perspective. The symbolism, archetypes, and raw depth of characterization are beautifully created.
