Glad to come across this, I will be ordering Absalom Absalom, never read a Faulkner book.
After doing a little research on it I am hesitant in that it appears to be an arduous read.
Any other books about the south to recommend? Southern heritage and history are big interest of mine.
Still going to order Absalom and give it a go.

I enjoy John Faulkner more, especially Dollar Cotton. A great read.

I would not start with Absolam! Absolam! as my first Faulkner book. It's a great book, but I'd recommend starting with The Sound and the Fury or even some of his short stories. Just my recommendation.

Mind of the South by WJ Cash, 1941. Start there.

Read "the bear" first since you are intimidated by Absalom 2.
