Plagued by depression & alcohol, he knew he had more to achieve & a finite amount of time & energy to achieve it. This volume gathers four groundbreaking works from this fascinating period. "Go Down, Moses" is a haunting novel that explores the intertwined lives of black, white, & 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 & the growing moral awareness of a southern white boy. "Requiem for a Nun" tells the fate of a passionate, haunted Temple Drake & her tortured redemption. "A Fable," Faulkner's recasting of the Christ story set in World War I, earned him the Pulitzer Prize. * The Library of America edition of Faulkner's work publishes new, corrected texts: manuscripts, typescripts, galleys, & published editions have been collated to produce versions that are faithful to Faulkner's intentions & free of the changes introduced by subsequent editors. * The EDITORS for this volume are Joseph Blotner, author of the two-volume "Faulkner: A Biography", & Noel Polk, editor of the critical edition of "The Sound & the Fury" & of "Sanctuary: The Original Text". * The LIBRARY of AMERICA is an award-winning, non-profit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts.
