like a book by faulkner, only human

i guess it's been awhile since i've done an online quiz for the sake of this blog, but that's just because the ones i usually run across seem boring. but you know what i love more than almost anything else? of course you do--books! so when i saw the "what literary work are you?" quiz i couldn't let the opportunity pass me by. the funny thing is, i just finished reading this book a couple weeks ago and have been proselytizing it's greatness ever since. although i found some of the explanatory notes less than fitting, i can only say i am nonetheless thrilled to be associated with this fine fiction.


You're The Sound and the Fury!
by William Faulkner
Strong-willed but deeply confused, you are trying to come to grips with a major crisis in your life. You can see many different perspectives on the issue, but you're mostly overwhelmed with despair at what you've lost. People often have a hard time understanding you, but they have some vague sense that you must be brilliant anyway. Ultimately, you signify nothing.
Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid.

Cool Quiz! Thanks.

You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try

anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent

some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in.

This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's

time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in

ferries.

Forgot to add: I am Siddhartha.
