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.

quote:Even Sound can be a difficult place to jump in to Faulkner. That was my first venture into his writing, and it about killed me. Looking at the book as a whole it makes sense, but to be thrown immediately into Benjy's world, and Faulkner's use of stream of consciousness, it makes it a fight to get settled in to it.
