Abstract
In this research I discuss the narration technique in three of William
Faulkner works Absalom, Absalom!, Light in August, and As I Lay Dying.
Faulkner uses multiple narrators in those three works. The aim of my thesis
writing is to discuss how the narration technique with multiple narrators is
used in those three novels. Faulkner applies multiple narrators in a form of
narration that completes each other in certain modes of narration hence the
readers could understand the story of each novel in many different point of
views. There are several modes of narration that Faulkner applies such as
supporting narration mode, negating narration mode, questioning narration
mode, and dominance narration mode.
