I think Absalom, Absalom is a great book with some weighty themes. As I've read it twice, though, I'm open to some new Faulkner. The three-page sentence, anyone?
I could go with Faulkner. I've read The Sound and the Fury, Light in August, and As I Lay Dying; but all were quite some time ago. I wouldn't really mind re-reading them; but I'd prefer reading something I've not read before.
I'm thinking A Light in August.
Anyone opposed?
Actually, after reading this

I'm almost sold on As I lay Dying. Give me another minute to think about it.
