About the Author
William Faulkner, one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, was born in New Albany, Mississippi, on September 25, 1897. He published his first book, The Marble Faun, in 1924, but it is as a literary chronicler of life in the Deep South—particularly in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, the setting for several of his novels—that he is most highly regarded. In such novels as The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, Light in August, and Absalom, Absalom! he explored the full range of post–Civil War Southern life, focusing both on the personal histories of his characters and on the moral uncertainties of an increasingly dissolute society. In combining the use of symbolism with a stream-of-consciousness technique, he created a new approach to fiction writing. In 1949 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. William Faulkner died in Byhalia, Mississippi, on July 6, 1962.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Second printing. Fine in fine dust jacket. Signed by Faulkner on the front fly. A beautiful copy of this novel about murder and the mass mind, the popularity of which was instrumental in gaining Faulkner the Nobel Prize. Basis for the 1949 Clarence Brown film. Despite a lack of stars, this was considered one of the most powerful films about racial prejudice ever made. Because of his agreement with his publisher to signed numbered limited editions, Faulkner was notoriously reluctant to signed trade editions of his books, even for his closest friends. As such, this signed edition is a rarity. *Haycraft-Queen Cornerstone*. Seller Inventory # 565528
