William Faulknerās 1930 novel As I Lay Dying employs a stream-of-consciousness technique, in which 15 characters (several of them belonging to one family) take turns as the narrator. Each chapter features the voice (and interior monologue) of a different character. The novel also experiments with dialect and chapter length; one chapter contains only five words.
