A Summer of Faulkner: As I Lay Dying, The Sound and the Fury, Light in August

I had read these books years ago and decided to read them again. I've been told by some, who have read Faulkner, that his style would never get him published today. I don't know about that, I only know that one must get thoroughly absorbed in his books if you want to understand them and thereby enjoy them--no distractions like loud street noises, TV blaring in the background, etc.. Maybe the "The Sound and the Fury" of our modern world will keep new readers from absorbing Faulkner's genius. Hope not.
