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, one of five in The Library of America's authoritative edition of Faulkner's complete novels, gathers the four groundbreaking 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 the 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." - from the rear outer jacket. "The years 1942 to 1954 saw William Faulkner's rise to literary celebrity - sought after by Hollywood, lionized by the critics, awarded a Nobel Prize in 1950 and the Pulitzer and National Book Award for 1954. But despite his success, he was plagued by depression and alcohol and haunted by a sense that he had more to achieve - and a finite amount of time and energy to achieve its. This volume. collects the.newly restored texts, based on Faulkner's manuscripts, typescripts, and proof sheets. free of the changes introduced by the original editors and are faithful to the author's intentions. In the four works included here, Faulkner delved deeper into themes of race and religion, and furthered his experiments with fictional structure and narrative voice; defying the odds, he continued to break new ground in American fiction. Go Down, Moses (1942) is a haunting novel made up of seven related stories that explore the intertwined lives of black, white, and Indian inhabitants of Yokhapatawph County. It includes "The Bear," one of the most famous works in all American fiction, with its evocation of "the wilderness, the big woods, bigger and older than any recorded document." Characters from Go Down, Moses reappear in Intruder in the Dust (1948). Part detective novel, part morality tale, it is a compassionate story of a black man on trial and the growing moral awareness of a southern white boy. Requiem for a Nun (1951) is a sequel to Sanctuary. With an unusual structure combining novel and play, it tells the fate of the passionate, haunted Temple Drake and the murder case through which she achieves a tortured redemption. Prose interludes condense millennia of local history into a swirling counterpoint. In A Fable (1954), a recasting of the Christ story set during World War I, he wanted, Faulkner said, "to try to tell what I had found in my lifetime of truth in some important way before I put the pen down and die." The novel, which earned a Pultizer Prize, is both an anguished spiritual parable and a drama of mutiny, betrayal, and violence in the barracks and on the battlefield." - excerpt from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Publisher's full dark red cloth, gilt lettering on spine and on black label on spine, printed endpapers, ribbon marker bound in. "Between 1930 and 1935, William Faulkner came into full possession of the genius and creativity that made him one of America's finest writers of the twentieth century. The four novels in this Library of America collection display an astonishing range of characters and treatments in his Depression-era fiction. As I Lay Dying (1930) is a combination of comedy, horror, and compassion, a narrative woven from the inarticulate desires of a peasant family in conflict. It presents the conscious, unconscious, and sometimes hallucinatory impressions of the husband, daughter, and four sons of Addie Bundren, the long-suffering matriarch of her rural Mississippi clan, as the family marches her body through fire and flood to its grave in town. Sanctuary (1931) is a novel of sex and social class, of collapsed gentility and amoral justice, that moves from the back roads of Mississippi and the fleshpots of Memphis to the courthouse of Jefferson and the appalling spectacle of popular vengeance. With its fascinating portraits of Popeye, a sadistic gangster and rapist, and Temple Drake, a debutante with an affinity for evil, it offers a horrific and sometimes comically macabre vision of modern life. Light in August (1932) incorporates Faulkner's religious vision of the hopeful stubbornness of ordinary life. The guileless Lena Grove, in search of the father of her unborn child; the disgraced minister Gail Hightower, who dreams of Confederate cavalry charges; Byron Bunch, who thought working Saturdays would keep a man out of trouble, and the desperate, enigmatic Joe Christmas, consumed by his mixed ancestry all find their lives entangled in the inexorable succession of love, birth, and death. Pylon (1935), a tale of barnstorming aviators in the carnival atmosphere of an air show in a southern city, examines the bonds of desire and loyalty among three men and a woman, all characters without a past. Dramatizing what, in accepting his Nobel Prize, Faulkner called "the human heart in conflict with itself," it illustrates how he became one of the great humanists of twentieth-century literature. The Library of America edition of Faulkner's work publishes, for the first time, new, corrected texts of these four works. Manuscripts, typescripts, galleys, and published editions have been collated to produce versions that are free of the changes introduced by the original editors and that are faithful to Faulkner s intentions. The volume is in perfect, pristine condition, unmarked, unread, tight, square, and clean. The unclipped dust jacket shows only the slightest shelf-wear. AS NEW/NEAR FINE.

A renowned scholar of Southern Literature and the preeminent Faulkner authority, Noel Polk (1943-2012) was Professor of English at the University of Southern Mississippi from 1977 to 2004 where he also served as editor of the university's THE SOUTHERN QUARTERLY. Polk joined Mississippi State University in the fall of 2004 and assumed the editorship of MISSISSIPPI QUARTERLY and was soon appointed Professor Emeritus. The book was acquired from the estate of Mississippi State University English professor Peyton W. Williams, Jr., a renowned southern literature scholar and a Faulkner specialist as well and who started teaching at the school in 1950 and served as editor of MISSISSIPPI QUARTERLY from 1970 until his death in 1987. During his brief tenure as a student at the University of Mississippi William Faulkner authored his play THE MARIONETTES in 1920 for a student drama club of the same name. Although the play was never staged, Faulkner personally hand-lettered and bound six copies (some sources cite eight) all of which shared b/w illustrations in an Art Nouveau style reminiscent of Aubrey Beardsley. Most of the original copies were sold to fellow Ole Miss students allegedly to raise funds for Faulkner's whiskey consumption. Four extant copies are known: two owned by the University of Texas, one by the University of Virginia, and one in a private collection in Columbus, Mississippi. ISBN 0813907349.
