Review title: Both "tragic" and "hilarious"
Product review: I love Faulkner's brand of humor, albeit is is exploitive on some level. One could look at this as early "mississipius peccadillus" and be right on the money. Certainly the poor folks of Mississippi had layers of problems back in the early 20th Century (and as they do today!) and this family was no exception.Here, The mom dies, but before she does, she forces her husband to promise that he'll bury her where she wants to be buried -- far away! They are poverty-stricken and have neither money nor viable means to get her there where she wanted to be buried but the old man tries his damndest to make good on his dubious promise.I should say that this work is VERY much akin to Jesse Stuart's "Taps for Private Tussie" in both subject matter and in Flavour as well. So if you end up loving this one you may as well grab "Tussie" too.This one is a hoot -- one of Faulkner's best and true to his unique, "back-door" writing style.
