«El ruido y la furia» is the novel by American writer William Faulkner, published by Editorial Planeta in hardcover (361 pages, in Spanish).
It portrays the decline of the Compson family, an old Southern United States lineage, through the fragmented memory of several of its members. It alternates times and narrative voices to explore the loss of innocence and family breakdown, with an experimental style that demands the reader's complicity.
The novel was originally published in 1929; this Spanish-language edition came out in 2003 and falls within classic fiction.
