Ever since the first furore was created on its publication in 1929, The Sound and the Fury has been considered one of the key novels of this century. Depicting the gradual disintegration of the Compson family through four fractured narratives, The Sound and the Fury explores intense, passionate family relationships where there is no love, only self-centredness. At its heart this is a novel about lovelessness - 'only an idiot has no grief; only a fool would forget it. What else is there in this world sharp enough to stick to your guts?' (20040923)

《押沙龙，押沙龙！》是福克纳最重要，也是最复杂、深奥，最具史诗风格的一部作品。它讲述的是美国南方一个家庭从1860年到1910年左右所经历的激烈的分崩离析的故事，深刻地表现了人与人、人与自己内心的种种冲突，触及与人类境遇有关的诸多带普遍性的问题。小说叙述方式独特；书中各人物从不同的角度，带着不同的主观感情“解释”过去，但共同体现出整部作品的悲剧格调。 本书书名源自《圣经》典故，书中描述的

A landmark in American fiction, Light in August explores Faulkner's central theme: the nature of evil. Joe Christmas - a man doomed, deracinated and alone - wanders the Deep South in search of an identity, and a place in society. After killing his perverted God-fearing lover, it becomes inevitable that he is pursued by a lynch-hungry mob. Yet after the sacrifice, there is new life, a determined ray of light in Faulkner's complex and tragic world. (20040702)
