Lilllabettt Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 The Sound and the Fury by Bill Faulkner its a stream of conciousness with chapters written from the perspective of a mentally handicapped person, another by a suicidal person, and its full of time shifts. No explanation or warning about any of it, the reader has to figure it out themselves. What kind of man writes books to deliberately confuse?

Stream of Conciousness can be good, Mesa Selimovic does an AMAZING job of it in "Death and the Deverish" but Faulkner=ewwwww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Therese Posted December 22, 2008 Author Share Posted December 22, 2008 I liked [i][b]As I Lay Dying[/b][/i]. I thought it was brilliant. Maybe its a southern thing. Did anyone read the Davinci Code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Therese Posted December 22, 2008 Author Share Posted December 22, 2008 I loved the absurdity of it. I did a presentation in lit class over it. My instructor laughed the whole time. True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated that book. It's probably the only book I can say that I truly hated that I read cover to cover. Normally if I dislike a book that badly I won't finish it (and I hate not finishing books).[/quote] We had to read that in 7th grade. Hated it. But I really hated The Grapes of Wrath. Srsly. Dullest book I have ever read. I had to literally force myself to read it. I reread chapters because I thought, "hey, I can get through it. It's just a book, right?" Uh, no. I was so, terribly wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kafka Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The worst book I've never read is Finnegan's Wake. The first and last page were epic, but I gave up on everything in between. Poor blind Joyce, he lost his mind in the end. Though I suppose its better than losing one's mind in the beginning. Or is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
