The Power and Possibility of a Slippery Slope How one event in your day can possibly change and affect the rest of your life
Frustration in the school and
workplace for college working students
I enjoyed writing my How-To last week and decided to write
another one focusing on English students in the classroom. In one of my classes I had to read a William
Faulkner novel, which was extremely difficult to understand. Therefore, I hope these tips help other
students that will need to read him one day.

1. Read the text very slowly
2. Write down everything you actually understand so you can look back
on your notes.
3. Re-read the chapter twice to see what you missed.
4. If you are reading Absalom Absalom! or The Sound and The Fury, pay close attention to whom is
telling the story.
5. After reading the entire
book, read the Spark notes to see what you missed.
6. After knowing everything that happened by reading the Spark Notes,
go back and re-read the book and notice the details that you missed the first
time reading the novel.

NOTE: These tips are necessary when reading William Faulkner because his works are too complex to make into a movie. You have no choice but to read the book.
