Style

The style of this book is confusing-not as bad as The Sound and The Fury- but still pretty confusing. Though Faulkner does seem to use parallel constructions and, oddly enough, (I'm not sure if there is a separate term for this or if it counts as an odd parallel) he uses the same words but changes the form. Like with Vardaman on page 55: "I strike at them, striking" and " wheeling on two wheels." It sometimes occurs and seems very odd and stylistic. His sentences also seem to sometimes use an odd progression, one thing in one sentence leading to another and so on. It seems very intentional and yet it doesn't make much sense most of the time.
