my first experience with Faulkner's prose and I can see that his writing is engaging. it was written in the same vein as ones of Poe's tales but with more of a contemporary setting. I'd like to sit with the story and see if I can figure out a few of the motifs and symbols for myself.

It was good. All the characters were very strange.
I will not spoil the story because it is very short.

Will read more from this author.
