Title: Faulkner: a bright light in any month
Review: "Still the child didn't answer. He had never seen a home, so there was nothing for him to say about it. And he was not old enough to talk and say nothing at the same time." Light in August, page 144Faulkner weaves his keen observations, penetrating character development, provocative phrasing, and fascinating plot development together with his singular familiarity with southern culture into a masterpiece of a book. If you are thinking about reading Faulkner for the first time, or re-reading Light in August for the umpteenth time, let this book transport you back to the rural south of a hundred years ago. If the inexcusable racism and ugly epithets are difficult for today's reader, imagine living in that time period where it was generally tolerated and appreciate how far we have come. My high school English teacher gave me a copy of this book when I graduated and I have spent a lifetime appreciating her choice. It's one of my favorite books.
