โฆ Synopsis
Having made his mark in Frenchman' s Bend, ambitious Flem Snopes sets his sights on the town of Jefferson. Rising up through the ranks of Jefferson' s bank, Flem uses his power to influence life in the town and control his unruly family. With the same memorable characters from The Hamlet , The Town is the second book in William Faulkner' s Snopes trilogy and continues his commentary on post-war economic troubles in the American South.
Published 17 years after The Hamlet , The Town marked Faulkner' s return to Snopes' s story, which he completed with The Mansion. While a self-contained novel, The Hamlet ' s meaning and social commentary is deepened when read in conjunction with the other Snopes books.
