 WFotW ~ Faulkner Glossary: "C"
Caddy's daughter, Quentin (named after Caddy's brother who committed suicide), then went to live with the Compsons, where her mother's name wass thereafter forbidden to be spoken.
Nothing was more devastating to Quentin's sensibility than Caddy's loss of virginity — to Quentin, her virginity was "a miniature replica of all the whole vast globy earth" — and so he succumbed to what Faulkner says (in the novel's "appendix") he loved most of all: death.
Quentin also appears in three short stories: "That Evening Sun" (in which he appears to be twenty-four years old, well older than he would have been at his suicide in 1910), "A Justice," and "Lion," which Faulkner revised, omitting Quentin's role, for "The Bear" section of Go Down, Moses.
