Divided into four sections, the history is narrated by three Compson brothers-Benjamin, Quentin, and Jason-followed by a section by an omniscient narrator..
Their lives fragmented and harrowed by history and legacy, the character\'s voices and actions mesh to create what is arguably Faulkner\'s masterpiece and one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
The Sound and the Fury is the tragedy of the Compson family, featuring some of the most memorable characters in literature: beautiful, rebellious Caddy; the manchild Benjy; haunted, neurotic Quentin
Jason, the brutal cynic; and Dilsey, their black servant.
