Eight studies by ARTHUR MIZENER
Professor of English at Cornell University 7: The Southern Novel-William Faulkner
William Faulkner was one of those rare writers who are something more than novelists. The bulk of his work is devoted to his magnificent. brooding vision of Southern culture, a vision which is organised round a few families. The Sound and the Fury, probably his greatest book, is the story of the Compson family; but it is also a daring and brilliantly executed experiment in the use of interior monologue to give dramatic intensity to a complicated narrative of family history.
† Produced by Howard Smith
