The novel tells the story of the Compson family, a once great, aristocratic Southern family that has begun to break apart and fall into decline. The story is set in Faulkner’s fictional town of Jefferson, Mississippi, in the early 20th century. It is told from the point of view of three of the Compson brothers and one omniscient third-person narrator. The Sound and the Fury is considered a classic of American literature, appearing at number six on Modern Library’s 1998 list of best English-language novels of the 20th century. The novel is well-known for its disjointed, non-linear narrative structure and stream-of- The Sound and the Fury is divided into four parts or chapters, with four distinct narrators, at four different points in time. The first part of The Sound and the Fury is narrated by Benjamin “Benjy” Compson, the intellectually disabled youngest of the Compson children. Benjy’s section spans from 1898 to 1928, with large and sometimes disjointed jumps in time and place. Because of his disability, Benjy has no concept of time. Therefore the entire first part is narrated as if the action is happening in the present, even though much of the section consists of Benjy’s memories from various points in the past. The second part of the novel is narrated by Quentin Compson, the eldest of the Compson children. Like Benjy’s section, Quentin’s narrative is non-linear and jumps between the present day and Quentin’s memories of the past. Part 3 is narrated by Jason Compson, the third of the Compson children. Having taken over as head of the family following the death of Mr. Compson, Jason works at a farm supply store and nurses a near single-minded obsession with material wealth. An omniscient, third-person narrator narrates the final section of The Sound and the Fury. It is Easter Sunday, and Part 4 mostly follows the actions of Dilsey Gibson, the Compsons’ Black cook and servant. While Dilsey is going about her morning chores, the household discovers that Miss Quentin has broken into Jason’s bedroom, stolen the money he had taken from her, and vanished.
3. Ezra Pound was born in Hailey, Idaho, on October 30, 1885. He completed two years of college at the University of Pennsylvania and earned a degree from Hamilton College in 1905. After teaching at Wabash College for two years, he travelled abroad to Spain, Italy, and London, where, as the literary executor of the scholar Ernest Fenellosa, he became interested in Japanese and Chinese poetry. He married Dorothy Shakespear in 1914 and became London editor of the Little Review in 1917. Ezra Pound is generally considered the poet most responsible for defining and promoting a Modernist aesthetic in poetry. Pound’s own significant contributions to poetry begin with his promulgation of  Imagism, a movement in poetry that derived its technique from classical Chinese and Japanese poetry—stressing clarity, precision, and economy of language, and foregoing traditional rhyme and meter in order to, in Pound’s words, “compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of the metronome.” His later work, for nearly fifty years, focused on the encyclopedic epic poem he entitled The Cantos.
