As far as the performances go, there are many different narrators. Most are good, and some much better than that. Still, over the course of so many stories, some could have used another take or two.
many great stories, and some not so great ones.

If you could sum up Collected Stories of William Faulkner in three words, what would they be?
Smart! Funny! Entertaining!What was one of the most memorable moments of Collected Stories of William Faulkner?
The majority of these short stories are captivating and enjoyable in my opinion. Stand out stories for me are A Rose for Emily, Death Drag, Dr. Martino, The Broch and Beyond.Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not listened to the narrator's other performances. Though they are all very fitting for the stories of Faulkner.If you could take any character from Collected Stories of William Faulkner out to dinner, who would it be and why?
I'd have dinner with Uncle Willy because he seems like a crazy cat.Any additional comments?
I have never read/listened to Faulkner before this collection of stories. I found it to be a good introduction to the author and I now want to read/listen to one of his longer works.Great Intro to Faulkner

If one listens to an audiobook in which the narration is heartfelt and the narrator can actually act in narrating, it's such a wonderful experience. A recent example for me is "Last Days of California" by Mary Miller (like Faulkner, a Mississippian), narrated by Andi Arndt. Ms. Arndt apparently put in a tremendous effort, to sound Southern, young and to act as in teen angst and in constant banter between 2 teen sisters. She made the whole thing so real that I got lost in it like a good movie.
Scott Brick's narration gives a soap feel and at times slides into adult-film grade acting. He overdramatizes a word in each sentence (usually the last one) and at times emphasizes every 2d or 3d syllable in every other or 2d or 3d sentence in a paragraph (with no real pattern, perhaps on an ad hoc, random basis). And, you can't help but notice his adulation with his voice; this effect on the (this) listener absolutely ruins the audiobook. I have wondered more than once if he has his latest narration piped into speakers throughout his house and poolside.
I have had to return books I purchased because his smarmy narration was worse to me than listening to 3 kids scraping rulers repeatedly over a chalkboard.
I had already rated this audiobook long ago, but just decided to add the review because I have recently come across books I would have loved but dropped like any other Brick. From reviews I've read, I'm not alone in my chagrin. I'm hoping enough noise will make a difference in audio-casting for prime books.
Faulkner stories great (narration awful in parts)

That said, I can love listening to Faulkner the same way I listen to Wagner. I just let it wash over me.
