The first time I came across Faulkner's novel was "The Sound and the Fury", but overall I just couldn't understand it and finally gave up; Recently, I have become slightly interested in stream-of-consciousness novels, so I read "As I Lay Dying", and it was actually only halfway through that I suddenly realized that it could be written like this; some people say that "As I Lay Dying" is a carnival of a group of families with mental patients, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it...
The characterization in this book is amazing! I particularly like the character of Bendren, who despite his difficult circumstances, always sticks to his promise to his wife. The author Faulkner is really amazing. His multi-perspective narration and stream-of-consciousness technique made me completely immersed in the story. This book is an absolute classic and worth reading!
The translation is very good!
Readers should feel the neurosis of the family in this book from a higher perspective, as well as the author's intentionally weird and interesting writing.
This translation is really good. It's not as down-to-earth as the others. The language is beautiful and the aftertaste is endless. You can learn something. I can't seem to find this translation on other platforms.
