top. This is kind of an inspiring story because it starts off by having him be the best and most successful golf caddy that this golf course has ever had. All of the people that had him as a caddy were against him going other places and doing something with his life. Dexter made his own decisions and went where he wanted to go and he wanted more out of his like than being a golf caddy his whole life. In the text Winter Dreams written by Scott Fitzgerald Dexter is a worthy tribute to the American
The Caddy Compson Effect In William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury, Caddy has a significant effect on the entire Compson family whether they recognize it or not. She impacts all of the characters so much that the book is largely about her despite her lack of a narrative section. Faulkner, in barring us from hearing directly from Caddy’s perspective, allows us to view just how influential she is in the story. He also may have chosen not to write from her point of view because Faulkner is limited

Despite illustrating her as a strong and independent mother-figure, Faulkner uses Caddy's decline to argue that unrealistic and

form different opinions about things, especially in regard to their opinions toward Caddy. The novel is split into four different perspectives. Three out of these four are written in the opinions of the brothers. In all of these viewpoints Caddy seems to be the central idea. The first story is told through the eyes of Benjy. Benjy is the least complex character within the novel. His relationship in regard to Caddy is simple and innocent. Benjy is... ... middle of paper ... ...give you fifty
The Compson family has three sons; Benjamin (Benjy), Quentin, and Jason, along with a daughter, Candace (Caddy). Benjy is the youngest son of the family and is mentally disabled, Quentin is the oldest son of the family and is the only child of the family who is trying to find some meaning of life, and Jason is the son who can care less about love and family. Caddy on the other hand, is the most important character in the novel, whose views are shown less, and others views on her are shown alot more
Quentin is obsessed with Caddy, and was highly dependant on her through their childhood. Although Quentin has a normal interpretation of time, unlike his brother Benjy, his narration can also be quite confusing due to his memories and fantasies being intertwined. The importance
Bleikasten’s Literary Analysis of Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury By focusing on the figure of Caddy, Bleikasten’s essay works to understand the ambiguous nature of modern literature, Faulkner’s personal interest in Caddy, and the role she plays as a fictional character in relation to both her fictional brothers and her actual readers. To Bleikasten, Caddy seems to function on multiple levels: as a desired creation; as a fulfillment of what was lacking in Faulkner’s life; and/or as a thematic
physical, mental, and emotional state of their daughters. The cruelty that mothers can and will subject their daughters to can be clearly shown in many of the relationships of some of the important characters in the story, such as, Mrs. Jellyby and Caddy Jellyby. We are shown that many women succeed in finding the maternal support the need and crave in their friendships to other women. Although Esther is essentially Dickens design of what traits women should want to embody, she manages to become a
Faulkner made it clear that one of the most important aspects of this novel is the theme of loss. Faulkner gave the views of four different individuals who all had one main obsession, their sister Caddy, who in a way symbolizes the loss that each person endures and the deterioration of the south. Caddy, who did not have a part in the novel to tell her side of the story, was viewed very differently by each of her brothers. This novel tells a story of the Compson family on their way of distinction

In the novels, The Sound and the Fury and As I Lay Dying, Faulkner symbolizes the constant internal presence of Addie Bundren and Caddy Compson despite Addie’s death and Caddie’s sacrifices as their disappearances disrupt normality. Even after death, Addie is able to “exists” through the connections of an animal. After learning that Addie wishes to be buried in Jefferson with her

She shapes the story into a story of family, difficulty, sex and values. Caddy is not the best behaved character to ever enter a story, she can frequently be promiscuous, controlling and easily taken advantage of. None of which are considered to be character qualities we as a society value. But, she is strong and compelling.
are incomparable to any other novel. In The Sound and the Fury, through the use of Caddy, William Faulkner is able to portray the theme of misfortune: how each of her three brothers (Benjy, Quentin, and Jason) copes with it, ultimately contributing to how the family has gradually disintegrated over the course of the novel. Benjy’s loss of Caddy drives his thoughts and memories in the story. From the beginning, Caddy has always given unconditional love to her mental brother, treating him like an equal
Faulkner presents sexual desire in The Sound and the Fury as a paradox of both entrapment and freedom. As he works his way through the nonlinear piece, information about sexuality of the characters, sexual symbols, and unfilled desire present themselves, each commenting on one another directly and indirectly. T. S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land” serves as a helpful lens in understanding the requirements to escape the waste land of the ruined Compson family by providing a backdrop on which The Sound and

Their only solution was to end their live in hopes of being free from their past. Stingo and Caddy feel different kinds of love-one is from a lover's prospective, the other from a mother's-but both types represent how love is endless, and is unbreakable. Because Styron admired Faulkner’s writing, he was able to capture similar emotions and character
employs a vastly different method of creation. This story unfolds as a patchwork of chronological events told through the experiences, memories, and interpretations of three brothers infatuated and obsessed with the actions and absence of their sister, Caddy. Consisting of a multitude of colors laid out by Caddy’s actions and her brothers’ reactions, Faulkner’s true patchwork genius lies in the craftsmanship of his seam. Binding together multi-colored material created by similar experiences, Faulkner’s
Heart's Darling: Faulkner and Womanhood In William Faulkner's The Sound and The Fury, Caddy Compson is the anchor character because Faulkner himself is so obsessed with her that he is unable bring her down off a platform enough to write words for her. Instead, he plays out his obsession by using her brothers as different parts of himself through which to play out his fantasies and interact with her. Faulkner writes himself into the novel by creating male characters all based on aspects of his own
