The Sound and the Fury: Faulkner and the Lost Cause

By John T. Matthews

The book explains the novel's connection with the American South of the 1920s, illuminating its modernist style and exploring its autobiographical elements. After surveying criticism on the novel, the book examines the theme that dominates the work: the changes occuring in Southern race, class and gender definitions.
