"As I Lay Dying" is a true classic and should be read by everyone at least once. Faulkner can be difficult to read and some people do not have the time. These notes are great for reading along side the novel. It can help clarify elements that some may misses. A lot of themes from the book are not discussed in the notes, so some may want to skim the book at the very least before a test.
The notes are well organized and can help people who must read the book super quick. The huge cast of characters are discussed in fair detail. This is a great tool for studying.
