"The Noise and the Tumult" is Faulkner's most representative work. It is also his favorite work, and the title of the book comes from a line in Shakespeare's famous work "Macbeth": "Life is like an idiot's dream, full of noise and turmoil".

Therefore, the whole book is permeated with a pessimistic mood in the first place. ** Through the life of the Compson family, it reflects the changing history of the American South, where old values are being discarded, new bourgeois values are accepted and established, and outright selfishness and money worship are celebrated. The four children have very different personalities, but their lives end tragically.

It is through this story that the author embodies the inevitable collapse of the Southern plantation economy and his powerful critique of capitalist value standards; ** Dilsey, the maid in Zhongzhao, is the only highlight in the book, she has not enjoyed any joy in life, but she lives with strength and helps others to survive; This image symbolizes that only those who live tenaciously can attain the ultimate happiness.
