This book follows the character Temple Drake. The book is about sex slavery, rape, and
murder. In many ways, it is more of a
book covering topics of today instead of the 30’s. William Faulkner isn’t the easiest author to
read. I gave up The Sound and the Fury. None
of the characters are redeemable in this book but I kept reading anyway. There was a movie with Miriam Hopkins called The Story of Temple Drake. Leonard Maltin gave it a high rating. For some reason, it’s not available. Neither is the Lee Remick version called Sanctuary. I wish these were available. When you read a book you usually want to see the
movie of it and this wasn’t possible for me concerning both movies.
Go back to The Sound and the Fury sometime - it's so good!
