A Circlin’ Buzzard: Positioning in Quentin’s Narrative

This article is a literary analysis focused on the narrative perspective of the character Quentin Compson in William Faulkner’s novel The Sound and the Fury. The phrase “A Circlin’ Buzzard” metaphorically suggests a recurring motif or imagery that emphasizes Quentin’s psychological position within the narrative. The author explores how Quentin’s internal thoughts, temporal disorientation, and narrative voice reflect his struggle with identity, time, and the decline of Southern aristocratic values. Through close reading and critical interpretation, the paper examines how Faulkner uses narrative structure and symbolism to position Quentin’s consciousness, contributing to our understanding of modernist narrative techniques in Southern literature.
