Philosophy,literary criticism and the creative mind are my cup of tea forever, especially for the most intricate ideas and for which I know, the subject of my book can rightly earn itself quite a credit for that. The book which is offered to you as the reader, explores Henri Bergson's notions of Durée and simultaneity in Sadeq Hedayats The Blind Owl (1937) and William Faulkners The Sound and the Fury (1929), two prominent Modernist narratives in contemporary Iranian and American literature.This book demonstrates how Bergsonian interpretation of temporality (durée) manifests itself in Hedayat's The Blind Owl and Faulkners The Sound and the Fury, which incorporate all the standard features of stream of consciousness and monologue writing and which deliberately defy the traditional temporal division through analysis of the similarities and differences in structure, techniques and entity of the two texts. It examines the narratological qualities of stream of consciousness on the level of the language-speech and pre-speech level- in both texts- to argue the nature of memory images. It will be a practical help for all researchers interested in Bergson and time in concept and practice.
