Why does Faulkner choose to have Quentin narrate his own section, even though he has been dead for nearly eighteen years? Why do you think Quentin is obsessed with time passage?
Why does he attempt to make, in a crucial conversation with his father, a confession of incest? Is it a false confession?
Given Quentin's state of mind at the time, what do you think of Mr. Compson's response to him?
