Book Synopsis The Town by : William Faulkner

Download or read book The Town written by William Faulkner and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-05-18 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume of Faulkner’s trilogy about the Snopes family, his symbol for the grasping, destructive element in the post-bellum South. Like its predecessor The Hamlet, and its successor The Mansion, The Town is completely self-contained, but it gains resonance from being read with the other two. The story of Flem Snopes’ ruthless struggle to take over the town of Jefferson, Mississippi, the book is rich in typically Faulknerian episodes of humor and of profundity.
