Review:
"A work of timeless importance" (New York Times)
"He has written a novel which in form is a thriller - and a very good thriller too - but this without distracting from its profundity" (New Statesman)
"There is an extraordinary vigor and power in his writing, a feverish urge toward description in which words combine in a dense web of meaning" (Chicago Tribune)
"The greatest American writers of the last century were William Faulkner and Saul Bellow" (Philip Roth)
"In a single brief decade, Faulkner had produced more lasting works of fiction than many great writers do in a lifetime" (Guardian)
