Books

• Absalom, Absalom!: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback | Hardcover  | Hardcover (Large Print) |
  The story of Thomas Sutpen, an enigmatic stranger who came to Jefferson in the early 1830s to wrest his mansion out of the muddy bottoms of the north Mississippi wilderness. He was a man, Faulkner said, "who wanted sons and the sons destroyed him."



• Elmer
   | Hardcover |



• A Fable
   | Paperback | Library Binding |
  An allegorical story of World War I set in the trenches in France and dealing ostensibly with a mutiny in a French regiment.



• Father Abraham
   | Hardcover |



• Flags in the Dust
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  If you want to start reading Faulkner, begin with this book. This is his first compelling novel, and, while not a masterpiece like The Sound and The Fury or Absalom, Absalom, it is more accessible and beautifully renders the aristocratic glamour and reckless violence of the Sartoris men. Equally arresting is the characterization of Horace Benbow. -- Curt Davis



• Go Down, Moses (Vintage International)
   | Paperback | Hardcover | Library Binding |
  Faulkner examines the changing relationship of black to white and of man to the land, and weaves a complex work that is rich in understanding of the human condition.




• The Hamlet: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback |  |
  This darkly comic masterpiece is the first novel in Faulkner's trilogy about the Snopes family, the grasping clan that comes to dominate Yoknapatawpha County after the fall of the Confederacy. -- Ingram



• Humo/Smoke
   | Paperback |



• As I Lay Dying: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Faulkner's distinctive narrative structures--the uses of multiple points of view and the inner psychological voices of the characters--in one of its most successful incarnations here in As I Lay Dying. In the story, the members of the Bundren family must take the body of Addie, matriarch of the family, to the town where Addie wanted to be buried. Along the way, we listen to each of the members on the macabre pilgrimage, while Faulkner heaps upon them various flavors of disaster. Contains the famous chapter completing the equation about mothers and fish--you'll see.



• If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem: The Wild Palms
   | Paperback | Hardcover |



• Intruder in the Dust
   | Paperback | Hardcover (Typescript Draft, Typescript Setting Copy, and Misc. Material) |
  A classic Faulkner novel which explores the lives of a family of characters in the South. An aging black who has long refused to adopt the black's traditionally servile attitude is wrongfully accused of murdering a white woman.



• Light in August: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback |
  Joe Christmas does not know whether he is black or white. Faulkner makes of Joe's tragedy a powerful indictment of racism; at the same time Joe's life is a study of the divided self and becomes a symbol of 20th century man.



• The Mansion
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  This completes the great trilogy of the Snopes family in Yoknapatawpha and traces the downfall of this indomitable post-bellum family.



• Marionettes
   | Leather Bound | Hardcover |



• Mosquitoes: A Novel by William Faulkner
   | Paperback | Audio Cassette | Hardcover (The Ribbon Typescript and Miscellaneous Typescript Pages) |
  Mosquitoes is not what one would expect of Faulkner, which should not diminish one's enjoyment of the story. It is humorous and satirical. Absent Faulkner's typical familial, historical, and cultural baggage, his characters in Mosquitoes still agonize, which makes them interesting. Let Faulkner surprise you. Enjoy the characters he gives us here and their comedic byplay. Absorb what he has to say about art and writing, in particular. You won't get it anywhere else. Try not to compare Mosquitoes to his other work; it is what it is, a slow boat loaded with pleasure. -- S. K. Figler



• New Orleans Sketches
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  This collection of short prose pieces was originally published in the New Orleans Time Picayune in 1925; however, I'm not sure that Faulkner would be entirely pleased that they have been re-exposed to the light of day. The writing is rough, even amateurish, and the story lines of the pieces are often trite and stock. But in spite of the general weakness of the writings, there are thematic elements and character types in the pieces that would reappear in Faulkner's mature writings. What is absolutely amazing is that just two years after the publication of these mediocre writings, Faulkner had published two novels and was deeply involved in the creation of his masterpiece, The Sound and the Fury. -- Jerry Clyde Phillips



• Pylon: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback |



• The Reivers: A Reminiscence
   | Paperback | Library Binding | Audio Cassette (Abridged) | Audio Cassette (Unabridged) |
  This grand misadventure is the story of three unlikely thieves, or reivers: 11-year-old Lucius Priest and two of his family's retainers. In 1905, these three set out from Mississippi for Memphis in a stolen motorcar. The astonishing and complicated results reveal Faulkner as a master of the picaresque. -- Ingram



• Requiem for a Nun
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  This sequel to Faulkner's Sanctuary written 20 years later, takes up the story of Temple Drake eight years after the events related in Sanctuary.



• A Rose for Emily (The Harcourt Brace Casebook Series in Literature)
   | Paperback |



• Sanctuary: The Corrected Text
   | Paperback | Hardcover | Audio Cassette (Unabridged) |
  Faulkner's dark story of the abduction of Mississippi debutante Temple Drake, who introduces her own form of venality into the world of her kidnappers. -- Ingram



• The Sound and the Fury: The Corrected Text (Vintage International)
   | Paperback |
  First published in 1929, Faulkner created his "heart's darling," the beautiful and tragic Caddy Compson, whose story Faulkner told through separate monologues by her three brothers--the idiot Benjy, the neurotic suicidal Quentin and the monstrous Jason.



• Stallion Road: A Screenplay
   | Hardcover |



• The Town
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Faulkner's literary reputation and legacy was cemented by the time this sequel to The Hamlet appeared. He had also written all of his important works and was loosing his "touch", writing sequels to his more famous works and light weight nostalgic pieces (i.e. The Reivers). All in all this is still an important examination of the south, filled with the humor and horror that was Faulkner's trademark. Anyone interested in his body of work will have to read it at least once. -- Chadwick H. Saxelid



• Two Soldiers
   | Audio Cassette |



• The Unvanquished
   | Paperback (The Corrected Text) | Hardcover (Large Print) |
  The Sartoris family, who embody the antebellum ideal of Southern honor and its transformation through war, defeat, and Reconstruction, are the focal point of this outstanding novel. -- Ingram

• Snopes:

  Three Novels in One
   | Hardcover |



• Spotted Horses and Other Stories
   | Audio Cassette (Unabridged) |
  Those who have been discouraged from reading Faulkner will find Wendell Berry's narration of three of Faulkner's best stories a delightful and effective way to approach this difficult writer. The stories are Spotted Horses, The Old People, and Shingles for the Lord. Kentuckian Berry, himself an essayist and novelist of great reputation, conveys the rhythms, tones and idiosyncrasies of mid-Southern speech with accuracy and sensitivity. Berry's obvious love of these stories and his belief in the need to hear Faulkner read aloud are disclosed by Berry himself in a beautifully stated afterword. The production values are excellent, as well. Audio Literature is to be congratulated for following the highest standards in bringing performance literature to the public. -- AudioFile

• William Faulkner: Novels 1930-1935:
      As I Lay Dying
      Sanctuary
      Light in August
      Pylon
   | Hardcover |
  Between 1930 and 1935, William Faulkner came into full possession of the genius and creativity that made him America's greatest writer of the twentieth century. As I Lay Dying is a dark comedy, full of horror and compassion, of a rural Mississippi family bearing the corpse of their matriarch to burial in town. "Sanctuary," a violent novel of sex and social class that moves from Mississippi back roads to the flesh-pots of Memphis, features a sadistic gangster named Popeye and a debutante with an affinity for evil. Light in August, a near-religious vision of the hopeful stubbornness of ordinary life, is perhaps Faulkner's most moving work. Pylon, a tale of barnstorming aviators, examines the bonds of loyalty and desire among three men and a woman. All are presented in restored texts as part of The Library of America's new, authoritative edition of Faulkner's complete works.



• William Faulkner: Novels 1936-1940:
      Absalom, Absalom!
      The Unvanquished
      If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem
      The Hamlet
  (Library of America)
   | Hardcover |
  These four novels show one of America's greatest writers at the height of his powers. Presented in authoritative new texts, they explore the struggles of characters in a South caught between a romantic and a tragic past and the corrupting enticements of the present. Quentin Compson and his Harvard roommate re-create the story of the insanely ambitious patriarch Thomas Sutpen--and discover that his grief, pride, and doom are the inescapable legacy of a past that is not dead. The Unvanquished recounts the ordeals and triumphs of the Sartoris family during and after the Civil War. In If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem (first published as The Wild Palms), paired stories tell of desperate lovers and a fleeing convict. In The Hamlet, the outrageous scheming energy of Flem Snopes and his clan is vividly and hilariously juxtaposed with the fragile community and customs of Frenchman's bend, Mississippi.



• William Faulkner: Novels 1942-1954:
      Go Down, Moses
      Intruder in the Dust
      Requiem for a Nun
      A Fable
  (Library of America)
   | Hardcover |
  The years 1942 to 1954 saw Faulkner's greatest success--and greatest inner anguish. Plagued by depression and alcohol, he knew he had more to achieve and a finite amount of time and energy to achieve it. This volume gathers four ground breaking works from this fascinating period. Go Down, Moses is a haunting novel that explores the intertwined lives of black, white, and Indian inhabitants of Yoknapatawpha County. It includes The Bear, one of the most famous works in American fiction. Intruder in the Dust, a detective novel, is a compassionate story of a black man on trial and the growing moral awareness of a southern white boy. Requiem for a Nun tells the fate of a passionate, haunted Temple Drake and her tortured redemption. A Fable, Faulkner's recasting of the Christ story set in World War I, earned him the Pulitzer Prize.



• William Faulkner: Novels 1957-1962:
      The Town
      The Mansion
      The Reivers
  (Library of America, 112)
   | Hardcover |
  William Faulkner's fictional chronicle of Yoknapatawpha County culminates in his three last novels, rich with the history and lore of the domain where he set most of his novels and stories. The Town (1957), the second novel of the Snopes trilogy that began with The Hamlet, charts the rise of the rapacious Flem Snopes and his extravagantly extended family as they connive their way into power. In The Mansion (1959), the trilogy's conclusion, a wronged relative finally destroys Flem and his dynasty. Faulkner's last novel, The Reivers: A Reminiscence (1962), distinctly mellower and more elegiac than his earlier work, is a picaresque adventure that evokes the world of childhood with a final burst of comic energy. Novels 1957-1962, like previous volumes in The Library of America's edition of the complete novels of William Faulkner, has been newly edited by textual scholar Noel Polk to establish an authoritative text, that features a chronology and notes by Fau! lkner's biographer Joseph Blotner.



• William Faulkner:
      The Sound and the Fury and
      As I Lay Dying
  (Columbia Critical Guides)
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Now recognized as two of Faulkner´s greatest novels, The Sound and the Fury (1929) and As I Lay Dying (1930) were commercial failures in the decade following their publication. By the end of the Second World War, however, the reputation of both novels had grown and Faulkner´s great fictional creation, Yoknapatawpha County, had become as much a part of America as any real area of the Mississippi landscape. This Guide explores the wealth of critical material generated by these two exceptional works of modernist fiction. From the initially mixed critical responses to the novels in the early 1930s, the Guide follows the enormous growth of interest in Faulkner´s work across six decades. New writings shaped by a range of critical theories are discussed, offering the reader a clear view of the place now given to one of America´s most innovative and influential novelists.



• William Faulkner: Toward Yoknapatawpha and Beyond
   | Paperback | Hardcover |



• William Faulkner Reads
   | Audio Cassette |
  This reissue is touted as historic, the first recordings that the legendary American novelist made of his own writings. Included are his famous Nobel Prize acceptance speech and excerpts from As I Lay Dying, A Fable, and The Old Man. Faulkner's 57-year-old voice is weak and gravelly from hard drinking. One would expect a laconic Southern drawl, but while Mississippi thickly colors his pronunciation, he rushes through his texts as if late for an appointment. Therefore, he expresses very little besides haste. -- Copyright © AudioFile

With particular attention to the sections of "The Bear" that make little sense lacking the context of the greater novel, this book is convincing, interesting, and well written. -- Aaron Bennett

  After reading the Sound And The Fury, one cannot but describe Faulkner's book as a work of genius. It is so full of creativeness and passion that you just go on turning pages without realizing. It is a story told from four perspectives, of the disintegration of a Southern family. Indeed the book presents a daunting challenge for all readers. Though difficult to read, the novel left me in awe at the emotions possible from a single string of words. The Sound And The Fury attains heights and depths of expression that are truly breathtaking, it is an unforgettable work that richly rewards the reader's efforts. -- Fawzia Jeewah

  Bockting has produced a work that focuses on the "people" that Faulkner created in his four major psychological novels: The Sound and the Fury (1929); As I Lay Dying (1920), Light in August (1932), and Absalom, Absalom! (1936). The author writes not about these people, either as literary characters or as human beings, but instead has allowed them to come alive in their own time, through their own texts. Psychostylistics is the innovative approach to the literary character that Bockting employs, bringing together new developments in narrative psychology and psychiatry with literary stylistics and mind-style to provide detailed textual and contextual evidence in support of its observations on personality. Contents: The Literary Character: Between Life and Linguistic Style; Mind-Style in The Sound and the Fury; Multiple Voices in As I Lay Dying; Light in August and the Issues of Unreliability; Absalom, Absalom!: A Novel of Attribution; Character, Personality, and Psychostylistics.

  Originally published in 1975, this edition of Irwin's psychoanalytic study of Faulkner's fiction is expanded by the addition of two essays: one examining Faulkner's self-conscious manipulation of detective story structures in the tradition originated by Poe's Dupin stories and the second focusing on Horace Benbow as a transitional figure in the development of a single character structure. -- Annotation c. by Book News, Inc.

   | Hardcover |
  Few dispute the view of New Critics that, after winning the 1949 Nobel Prize and spending time in Hollywood, William Faulkner became a public man, his creative powers ebbed, and his last works proved negligible. In this volume, however, Towner (English, Univ. of Texas, Dallas) reassesses Faulkner's later work (comprising three collections of short stories and six novels). She finds not a tired man but a growing, vibrant, and questioning artist who was not only exploring the formation of American racial identity but also experimenting with narrative technique. In her discussion of the novel Sanctuary, for instance, Towner shows how racializing language allows Temple Drake and, "of course, other whites" to maintain a grotesque and artificial racial ideology. Throughout her discussion of such often-neglected late novels as Intruder in the Dust, Requiem for a Nun, the Snopes trilogy, and A Fable, Towner demonstrates how Faulkner reworked earlier stories and characters to understand human nature beyond America!s color line. Recommended for academic libraries with large Faulkner collections. -- Charles C. Nash, Cottey Coll., Nevada, MO

• Faulkner in Cultural Context: Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha, 1995 (Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Series)
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  From the 1995 Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Conference, twelve essays that reveal the author in his relationship with his world. What Faulkner once referred to as his "material, the South," possesses the most substantive kind of reality - war and peace, wealth and poverty, racial and sexual identity. Yet this reality is ultimately cultural, for it must be understood in terms of a way of life. The twelve essays in this volume trace some of the significant connections between Faulkner's fiction and his surrounding life and show the ways in which the work of art and the southern context combine to produce meaning.

• Faulkner and the Modern Fable
   | Hardcover |
  In "Faulkner and the Modern Fable", Kiyoko M. Toyama offers an array of personal responses to the writings of William Faulkner as well as to those of several other major writers. While her response to Faulkner and other writers is personal, her research is based on years of active reading, thinking and teaching Faulkner. As a Japanese woman scholar, Toyama has seen in his enterprise certain religious and family themes that are not as apparent to many Western readers and are, more importantly, critical to the understanding of his work. The seeming eclecticism of this book is not a consequence of its contents having been casually assembled. It is, rather, a reflection of the writer's broad range of interests, and all the chapters are approached from the viewpoint of Words and Deeds, essentials that comprise our life. The book, a work of literary criticism, was ultimately written in answer to the personal questions which the author asked herself: "Where am I from? Where am I now? and Where am I going?" The volume has been inspired by a desire to bring unity to her Japaneseness, her Catholicism, and her love of literature.

• Faulkner's County: The Historical Roots of Yoknapatawpha (Fred W. Morrison Series in Southern Studies)
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Lafayette County, Mississippi, was the primary inspiration for what is arguably the most famous place in American fiction: William Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County. Faulkner once explained that in his Yoknapatawpha stories he "sublimated the actual into the apocryphal." This history of Lafayette County reverses that notion, using Faulkner's rich fictional portrait of a place and its people to illuminate the past. From the arrival of Europeans in Chickasaw Indian territory in 1540 to Faulkner's death in 1962, Don Doyle chronicles more than four centuries of local history. He traces the building of a permanent community and plantation economy by white settlers, the lives of slaves in the region, the experiences of secession, Civil War, and Reconstruction, town life in Oxford, and the "Revolt of the Rednecks" Faulkner captured in his saga of the Snopes clan. Drawing on both history and literature, Doyle renders a rich and deeply researched portrait of Faulkner's home. "Yoknapatawpha was a place of the imagination, invented by Faulkner as a vehicle for developing a coherent body of fiction," Doyle writes, "but the raw materials from which he created this place and its people lay right at his front porch."

• Faulkner's Literary Children: Patterns of Development (Modern American Literature, Vol 8)
   | Hardcover |
  One of William Faulkner's myriad artistic strengths was his ability to create memorable child characters. Faulkner's Literary Children focuses on the development, or misdevelopment, of Joe Christmas, Quentin Compson, Thomas Sutpen, and Isaac McCaslin in childhood and adolescence. This book draws upon the Bildungsroman tradition and twentieth-century theories of human development in an attempt to better understand Faulkner's "dysfunctional" children in his major earlier novels as well as his creation of two "normal" youngsters, Chick Mallison and Lucius Priest, late in his career. -- The publisher, Peter Lang Publishing

• Faulkner's Short Fiction
   | Hardcover |
  This critical guide to William Faulkner's short fiction also provides a history of Faulkner's development from an apprentice writer of short stories into a novelist who is a master of his craft. The author presents a balanced assessment of Faulkner's strengths and weaknesses as a writer of short stories. While praising Faulkner for his extraordinary range and diversity, vivid imagination, energy, and inventiveness, he proceeds to analyze Faulkner's technical weaknesses, e.g., uneven handling of point of view, treatment of plot, narrative strategies, and difficulty with the short story form. The concluding chapter discusses the complex relation of Faulkner's short fiction to the novels. Story excerpts, Faulkner's comments on the craft of writing, and interesting comparisons with Hemingway, Chekhov, and others are included. An important work on a subject that has received insufficient attention; recommended for American literature collections. -- Lesley Jorbin, Cleveland State Univ. Lib.

• Faulkner's Short Stories: Cliffs Notes

  Like his longer novels, Faulkner's shortest stories can be difficult to follow, given that events are presented out of order and the narrator is not easily identified. This study of five stories adds a clarity that leads to a greater appreciation of his genius.



• Faulkner's Subject: A Cosmos No One Owns (Cambridge Studies in American Literature and Culture, No 56)
   | Hardcover |
  Faulkner's Subject offers a reading of William Faulkner for our time, and does so by rethinking his masterpieces through the lenses of current critical theory. The book attends equally to the power of his work and to the current theoretical issues that would call that power into question. Drawing on poststructuralist, ideological, and gender theory, Weinstein examines the harrowing process of "becoming oneself" at the heart of these novels. This self is always male, and it achieves focus only through strategically mystifying or marginalizing women and blacks. The cosmos he called his own--the textual world he produced, of which he would be "sole owner and proprietor"--merges as a cosmos no one owns, a verbal territory also generated (and biased) by the larger culture's discourses of gender and race. Like personal identity itself, it is a cosmos no one owns.

  Longtime critic and scholar Brooks has already produced three seminal studies on Faulkner and is regarded today as his foremost authority. This collection of 12 essays considerably enhances the body of Faulkner criticism. Brooks takes a refreshing look at such topics as the Agrarian writers' quiet regard for Faulkner, his skillful use of women characters, the chivalric tradition displayed in his novels, his short fiction, his treatment by irate British critics, and the darkening of the American Dream. This diversity of topics results in some overlapping without seeming cumbersome. The prose remains engaging, witty, and intelligent; the reader feels compelled to return to the classics of Faulkner.

• The Portable Faulkner
   | Paperback |
  The Portable Faulkner is THE way to be introduced to William Faulkner, arguably the best of 20th century American novelists. Cowley arranges whole work and excerpts chronological for Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County; it should be noted that Faulkner did not write his body of work chronologically. By arranging the work in this way, Cowley does us a great service in seeing Faulkner's great creation as an ordered whole. The drawback to this work is in its goal -- to make more understandable Faulkner's creation in his mythic county. The drawback is that, by design, none of Faulkner's other work is included, such as The Fable. The Portable Faulkner should be viewed only as an introduction, a tantalizer. Upon seeing the greatest of the work, we can then proceed to the work in its entirety. -- Dr. Robert P. Gray

  In Producing American Races Patricia McKee examines three authors who have powerfully influenced the formation of racial identities in the United States: Henry James, William Faulkner, and Toni Morrison. Using their work to argue that race becomes visible only through image production and exchange, McKee illuminates the significance that representational practice has had in the process of racial construction.



• A Readers Guide to William Faulkner
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Both clear and scholarly, this book provides an introduction to William Faulkner, his style, techniques and themes, and it offers a detailed, illuminating analysis of the nineteen novels. Faulkner is a difficult artist. A cooperative reading of his novels can enhance the pleasure that his art affords and deepen appreciation of it. The author's aim is to reveal the greatness of Faulkner's art and the scope and profundity of his personal vision of life. The Guide is divided into three sections. The first describes the dominant patterns in the fiction, by isolating Faulkner's major themes and by analyzing his narrative techniques and style. The second section offers extensive, individual interpretations of the nineteen novels, tracing the development of Faulkner's ideas. The final section contains detailed chronologies of the difficult novels like The Sound and the Fury.

• Readings on William Faulkner (The Greenhaven Press Literary Companion to American Authors)
   | Paperback | Library Binding |
  Gr 9 Up--This series title formalizes what could be a daunting experience for young adults unfamiliar with the author and makes it less so. It includes a short biography of Faulkner, an annotated table of contents, critical essays, suggestions for further reading, and a detailed index. The historical basis and structural slants of the essays make the more conceptual topics accessible and readable. Discussions of imagery, humor, symbolism, and metaphor complement less tangible elements such as myth, maturation, loneliness, and morality. Editor-inserted passages from the primary texts help illustrate the essays' main points, and clarifying footnotes illuminate potentially confusing spots. By discussing a variety of major works, this treatment is significant, but could be problematic if students are not familiar with most of the author's work. Both school and general library collections would benefit from its inclusion. -- Kate Foldy, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh

  While critics praise Faulkner as one of the greatest writers of the modern era, students struggle to make sense of his extremely difficult texts. The broadest treatment to date of a topic of increasing concern, this book is designed to provide fresh strategies and practical suggestions for the classroom study of several of Faulkner's finest novels and stories. The expert contributors draw upon such diverse matters as cultural and social analysis, historical context, reading and rhetorical theory, film and stage techniques, comparative studies, and race, class, and gender issues. In each case, theory is subordinated to tested classroom methods that both motivate and assist students in reading the texts and in understanding why Faulkner remains relevant for contemporary readers.

  William Faulkner (1897-1962), like other authors of the Southern Renascence, believed the South to be a victim of post-Civil War, Northern imperialism. Through their writing, these authors offered a response that may be termed "postcolonial" and profitably compared to the writing of postcolonial authors worldwide. By consistently undercutting the myths of the South, however, Faulkner goes beyond the nostalgic Confederate flag-waving of his contemporaries and suggests a path toward personal liberation.

• Faulkner in the University
   | Paperback |
  I must say, that when I first picked this book up, I was a bit skeptical. It was wrapped in plastic giving me no idea of what was in it, and it was by some publishing company I never heard of. But, being an impulse buyer, I paid for it, and brought it to a coffee shop where I continued to read and read, on the way home, while watching television, and even when I went to bed, and did not put it down until I read the whole thing. As a writer and fellow fan of Faulkner, I highly recommend this book to any student or fan (what's the difference, though?) of Faulkner's writings, and especially to any writers out there, and most of all, any Faulkner teachers. Faulkner is asked any question you can think of in this book, from certain meanings in his, The Bear, to the long time controversy about the order of sections in The Sound and the Fury, to the Adlers in As I Lay Dying, all the way to why he prefers the Old Testament to the New. He even puts down Henry James in this book, and talks about his greatest influences on his writing, his favorite books (such as Cervantes' Don Quixote) and even puts in some good advice to aspiring authors, and how they should take writing, and even advice on how to write in the traditional Southern Gothic style. Truly a magnificent book that deserves top priority to any fan or teacher of Faulkner, or any writer in general! A masterpiece!!! -- Randy Hofbauer

• Thinking of Home: William Faulkner's Letters to His Mother and Father, 1918-1925
   | Paperback | Hardcover |
  Some 150 letters home by the young Faulkner, who is way up north in New York and New Haven, or in New Orleans or in France. These previously unpublished letters are distinguished by Faulkner's softly edged humor about strangers and their strange practices and by his mellifluous impressions of place. The lengthy introduction by Watson (English/Univ. of Tulsa) ties them in with Faulkner's early novels Soldier's Pay and Mosquitoes and shows them as generating background detail for Quentin Compson and other characters in his major works. Faulkner's voice is a pleasure to listen to, his southern tones filling every page, and he is not above making fun of himself: "I saw one of the most attractive girls this afternoon. She sells cheap jewelry at Woolworth's. I bought a gaudy comb which I am sending Mammy, to talk to her...I really would like to have her where I could sit and look at her when ever I liked." During the seven years covered here, Faulkner gets a job at the Winchester Repeating Arms Co. in New Haven ("I am holding three jobs now. One of them keeps me chasing all over the plant. I am seriously considering that they furnish me with roller skates"); trains as a Royal Air Force pilot in Canada (although WW I ends before he gets overseas); is homesick constantly; writes poetry; and enrolls in the Univ. of Mississippi. He then clerks in a Doubleday bookstore in Manhattan as his letters grow quite witty and beautiful ("you pass through tight little New England villages built around plots of grass they call greens...there is a feeling of the most utter relief, as if I could close my eyes, knowing I have found again someone who loved me years and years ago"); spends six months on Soldier's Pay in New Orleans in the company of Sherwood Anderson; goes abroad; and corrects proofs of Soldier's Pay for Boni & Liveright. Sweet little basket of nuts and berries. -- Copyright ©1991, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

• Faulkner's World: The Photographs of Martin J. Dain
   | Hardcover |
  There has been very few times in the past that I have ever considered buying a coffee table book, most in my opinion just collect dust. This book however is a wonderful pictorial account of Oxford Mississippi during the time when Faulkner still walked our streets. What I think is amazing is that some of the people pictured in this book as children still live in Oxford and are still an active and beautiful part of our local history. This is an ideal gift for friends or family that have attended the University of Mississippi and have learned to love the small town personality of Oxford. -- Tyra Lynne
