Description

A harrowing account of the Bundren family's journey to bury their wife and mother, As I Lay Dying is a landmark novel in American fiction. Narrated by each family member, including the wife herself, the novel explores a range of moods, from dark comedy to profound pathos. The novel's innovative structure and style have made it a significant influence on American literature. This edition reproduces the corrected text, established in 1985 by Noel Polk, ensuring a faithful representation of Faulkner's original work. With its complex characters and nuanced exploration of family dynamics, As I Lay Dying is a powerful and thought-provoking read.
