This is the second volume of Faulkner’s trilogy about the Snopes
family, his symbol for the grasping, destructive element in the
post-bellum South. Like its predecessor The Hamlet, and its successor
The Mansion, The Town is completely self-contained, but it gains
resonance from being read with the other two. The story of Flem
Snopes’ ruthless struggle to take over the town of Jefferson,
Mississippi, the book is rich in typically Faulknerian episodes of
humor and of profundity.
