Trilógia Snopesovcov

Táto sága z amerického Juhu vykresľuje vzostup a pád jednej rodiny v malom mestečku. Prostredníctvom prenikavých postáv a spletitých vzťahov skúma témy ambícií, moci a morálneho úpadku. Každá kapitola odhaľuje novú vrstvu zložitosti, ako sa rodina snaží ovládnuť svoje okolie, často s katastrofálnymi následkami. Je to silný príbeh o ľudskej povahe a nevyhnutnosti osudu.

    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’s ruthless struggle to take over the town of Jefferson, Mississippi, the book is rich in typically Faulknerian episodes of humor and profundity.

    The Mansion completes Faulkner’s great trilogy of the Snopes family in the mythical county of Yoknapatawpha, Mississippi, which also includes The Hamlet and The Town. Beginning with the murder of Jack Houston, and ending with the murder of Flem Snopes, it traces the downfall of this indomitable post-bellum family, who managed to seize control of the town of Jefferson within a generation.
