I feel like a wet seed wild in the hot blind earth.

William Faulkner

I love this, Faulkner is so funny! this line was said by a character named Dewey Dell, which when translated means "Moist Valley". This line is Faulkner trying to scream to his readers about Dewey Dell's ample and thriving fertility! It is even more intriging that at this piont in the story the reader is starting to realize that Dewey Dell may be pregnant. The way he says so much without saying it...confusing the reader at first maybe but revealing secrets once he is understood...he masters the art of purposeful confusion. I envy this talent!
