✦ Synopsis


Pocos años antes de su muerte, el propio William Faulkner recomendaba esta novela como aquella por la que debía empezar quien se acercara por primera vez a su obra. «He concebido la historia entera como un relámpago que iluminase de golpe un paisaje», declaró. La publicación de Sartoris en 1929, después de varios intentos fallidos, supuso que por fin viera la luz el mítico condado de Yoknapatawpha, escenario de muchos de sus relatos y novelas posteriores.

En Sartoris , Faulkner disecciona una clase social en decadencia a partir de una familia heredera de las tradiciones aristocráticas del Sur, a la que sólo le queda la retórica romántica, el orgullo y la autocompasión para enfrentarse a un mundo en el que ya no encuentra su sitio.
