William Faulkner
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 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.
As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of William Faulkner's book, you'll also receive an exclusive Jim Atlas interview.

Tragic, philosophical, wise, profound, and very funny, Faulkner illuminates the human condition through the history of a southern community and the observations made of one particularly voracious family. Performance is excellent.

This is one of the easier Faulkner titles to read. Still, Faulkner does employ his challenging prose style at times, so the reader/listener must attend carefully.
The narrator of the book did a very good job, with an excellent accent and very good pacing.

I was surprised, saddened and ultimately edified upon learning the fate of a significant fictional female, whose character and what she symbolized were bound to doom by the growing commercialization of the American South in the first few decades of the 20th Century.
Superb and Accessible Second in Snopes Trilogy

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
I like many of William Faulkner's other books, but this one I didn't finish. Too many characters to keep track of, not a very interesting story to me about a small town, and the reader's voice was not to my liking.Would you ever listen to anything by William Faulkner again?
I would listen to other Faulkner books that I know, but I would definitely preview a sample of the reader's voice.Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Joe Barrett?
If I was able to hire the narrator, I would have hired Richard Poe, narrator of John Steinbeck'sYou didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
This book didn't have any redeeming qualities for me. I listened for two hours and then jumped ahead, searching for something to pique my interest. No such luck. I kept waiting for the story to get better. Very disappointing. Finally just moved on to another book.Disappointment
