Bad Adaptation: Discussing As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner

This week we invite author and friend of the pod Jon Sealy (http://www.jonsealy.com/) to join us for a discussion of As I Lay Dying.  We talk about the different ways we understand the novel, if this is an example of literary cubism and whether Faulkner still has any resonance for people from the South today. This is the last book in our series Bad Adaptation where we read good books turned into bad movies.  You can find our previous episodes on Ballard's High-Rise, and Tartt's The Goldfinch in our archives.  Next week we will wrap up the series with a "good" adaptation: Haruki Murakami's Drive My Car.
