Absalom, Absalom! by William Faulkner

3.0

Faulkner, Faulkner! I have a love/hate relationship with this author. On the one hand, novels like this that weave such intricate narratives with such complex character relationships are wonderful, but, as any reader of Faulkner will know, reading his prose style takes determination. I adore the story and got quite pleasnatly tangled up in the incestual triangles among the characters. But then again, the decay of the Old South is a really interesting subject for me.
Not light reading, however. Approach with fortitude and make sure you've got a copy with a family tree.
