I studied this book and wrote the final Capstone paper for my English degree about the inclusion of the character Benji, using a disability theory lens. I hadn't read it again since then (over two years ago) and was wanting to, but I found the audiobook through my library and decided to listen instead. The story was as I remembered it, but listening was actually a lot harder than reading it. Here's what I mean by more difficult: the book itself is challenging to read and comprehend due to its multiple narrators expressed in Modernist style; however, the audiobook was easier to follow but emotionally and morally draining. Certain characters of this book, set in the deep American south in 1928 are of their time in their opinions on black people, and one of the main characters is extremely racist and sexist. The frequent use of the n-word and other derogatory terms was something I must have been able to slip past and not absorb while reading the physical copy... I knew it was there, but having to listen to it was a whole other ball game. It physically hurt at times having to listen to the third section of the book narrated by Jason Compson, who is incredibly racist and sexist. Besides this aspect, the story was as I remember it and it made me want to re-read my 35(ish) page paper in which I asserted that Benji Compson was not empty-headed, but was actually very intuitive and essential to the telling of the story. If you want to know more about that, let me know.
