One of this author's characters says that "motherhood was invented by someone who had to have a word for it because the ones that had the children didn't care whether there was a word for it or not." Another of his characters breaks a leg when Vernon Tull's bridge collapses. The first section of one of his novels is narrated by a boy whose sister "smelled like trees." A chapter in one of his novels is just (*) Vardaman saying "my mother is a fish." Another of his novels features the mentally handicapped Benjy, who reminisces about his sister Caddy, and whose brother, Quentin Compson, commits suicide. For 10 points, name this Mississippian author of As I Lay Dying and The Sound and the Fury.
