The Mansion
In the final novel of the Snopes family trilogy, following The Hamlet and The Town, William Faulkner charts the downfall of Flem Snopes at the hands of his relative Mink Snopes, aided by Flem's deaf daughter Linda, through three different narrators affiliated with the Snopes family. The Mansion takes place in Faulkner's mythical Yoknapatawpha County and thematically explores the South's displaced economic landscape and racial and social tensions.
