AMERICAN LITERATURE
The Hamlet: A Novel of the Snopes Family
by William Faulkner
Publisher Note:
The Hamlet, the first novel of Faulkner's Snopes trilogy, is both an ironic take on classical tragedy and a mordant commentary on the grand pretensions of the antebellum South and the depths of its decay in the aftermath of war and Reconstruction.
Troy Note:
anyone who ever aspires to write a novel should never read faulkner. i can't imagine still having the gumption to try after seeing him bend the language.
