A masterpiece of dark humour
Daily Express
The greatest American writers of the last century were William Faulkner and Saul Bellow...As I Lay Dying and The Adventures of Augie March: it's hard to think of two better novels written in this country in any century
Philip Roth, Observer
One of America's greatest writers
The Times
A beautiful novel
Independent
By universal consent of critics and common readers, Faulkner is now recognised as the strongest American novelist of the century, clearly surpassing (Ernest) Hemingway and (Scott) Fitzgerald, and standing as an equal in the sequence that includes Hawthorne, Melville, Mark Twain and Henry James . . . As I Lay Dying may be the most original novel ever written by an American
Harold Bloom
In a single brief decade, Faulkner had produced more lasting works of fiction than many great writers do in a lifetime
Guardian
Brilliant and compelling...one is constrained to follow to the end
Spectator
