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)
Born in 1897 in New Albany, Mississippi, William Faulkner was the son of a family proud of their prominent role in the history of the south. He grew up in Oxford, Mississippi, and left high school at fifteen to work in his grandfather's bank. Rejected by the US military in 1915, he joined the Canadian flyers with the RAF, but was still in training when the war ended. Returning home, he studied at the University of Mississippi and visited Europe briefly in 1925. His first poem was published in The New Republic in 1919. His first book of verse and early novels followed, but his major work began with the publication of The Sound and the Fury in 1929. As I Lay Dying (1930), Sanctuary (1931), Light in August (1932), Absalom, Absalom! (1936) and The Wild Palms (1939) are the key works of his great creative period leading up to Intruder in the Dust (1948). During the 1930s, he worked in Hollywood on film scripts, notably The Blue Lamp, co-written with Raymond Chandler. William Faulkner was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1949 and the Pulitzer Prize for The Reivers just before his death in July1962.
没有人像我和福克纳以及村上那样对气候充满感情的了。 我曾多次阅读《寻羊冒险记》4.《夏日的结束和秋天的开始》,因为不会日语,只好用篇章语义学把英文版的给仔细分析一遍。实际上,那一章对整个小说情节推动无甚作用,只是一个无所事事的夜晚“在消磨城市时间方面,我正往...

评分俾斯麦(Otto von Bismarck)说过:“法律好比香肠,最好别管怎么做出来的。”(Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made. )翻译也一回事。读者拿到手的是成品(product),而对于译者来说,似乎永远是半成品。译者与原著交互的过程(process)中,到...
一个谜一样的文本
评分电影技术与生命哲学对现代文学创作之辐射(跳角和意识流)造成直感上的作者隐形使读者经验更加逼近日常
评分我想说不明觉厉呃。。。语言真美妙。
评分几乎每读一句caddy和benjy的对话就开始哭结果哭了一晚上. 感觉像benjy一样absent又像caddy一样strong-willed. 身体一半被abandon了只会回忆只会murmur. 另一半却想说话想拯救想做hero.
评分"Once a bitch always a bitch". 福克纳真是让人无语><..四个叙述者中的前两个十分好看~~
