American Oxford Thesaurus

Faulknerian

Faulknerian adjective WORD NOTE Faulknerian Sometimes scholars, book publicists, or English majors will refer to a new Southern novel as Faulknerian. Or they might dub an evocative passage in a short story Proustian. Or describe a hellish scene as Dantesque. They might even resort to Shakespearean, Sophoclean, or Joycean. All perfectly good words, and all with the same drawback: they don't really mean much. Even those who know Sanctuary and Absalom! Absalom! won't be sure what Faulknerian signifies. Does it refer to intricately structured novels, long, convoluted sentences, grotesque characters, multigenerational sagas, doomed Southern aristocrats, crude melodrama, soaring authorial ambition, or what? Great writers aren't reducible to adjectives; they contain multitudes and their works are as rich and varied as the world around us. Rather than adopt this convenient, if vague shorthand, just describe the book or poem as it is and then, if need be, compare it to some precisely noted aspect of Balzac, Faulkner, or whomever.
