reviewed Portable Faulkner on February 17, 2012 Portable Faulkner
I think I've read most of the stuff in here, probably not all. But the rating and review are specifically for The Bear, which I read years ago, and a second time (at least) much more recently.
The Bear is a terrific long short story (novella, if you will) which is very representative of Faulkner's writing in many ways: the setting, the language, the stream of consciousness style in certain places, the references to the history of his mythical Mississippi county. Even though I'm sure I got more out of the story in my 60s than I did in my 20s, the fourth part of the story is dense with so much of the Faulkner mythos that it would require (from someone like me) careful study, which I didn't do, to get a clear picture of the relationships of the characters, or even how they were related to the protagonist, or even whether the protagonist in the earlier parts actually appeared in the fourth part.
I'm sure this description will really turn off a few people, which is okay; Faulkner is probably not your author.
