2025-02-26: Faulkner's South, Carol Osborne

If you want to understand the South, read Faulkner. If you want to experience a master of the English language, an amazing crafter of sentences, and a genius in the stream-of-consciousness style, read Faulker. If you think you will need some help navigating his prose and his memorable narrators, this class is for you. We will begin with some classic short stories and his Nobel Prize speech, then go to progressively challenging novels: Light in August, The Sound and the Fury, and Absalom, Absalom!

Wednesday, 10-11 a.m., 2/26, 3/5, 3/19, 4/9, 4/23, 5/28, $35, online (Zoom)
