As far as faulkner goes, its not how he writes but the lack of explination associated with it. Its like a ****ing mystery novel ontop of whatever else he's writing.
I mean the whole "He hit. Then he hit. Then he hit it further" that starts S&F drove me absolutly batty.

There's something very mystical about Faulkner's writing. He just takes a little getting used to Some of it is more coherent than others. Go Down Moses is a good example, and I think it's probably the best primer for the rest of his work. Absalom, Absalom was VERY tedious reading. There's meta-narratives and other wacked out literary devices running their full course in that book.
