William Faulkner, Michael Gorra: Sound and the Fury (2014, Norton & Company, Incorporated, W. W.)
In many ways this was an experimental novel, using several differing narrative styles. Divided into four parts, the author relates the same episodes from four different viewpoints, using a different style for each. The story concerns various members of a Southern family, once wealthy landowners but now struggling to maintain their reputation.
