    William Faulkner

    language (, Oct. 15, 2019)
    "Faulkner’s greatest work"—The New York Review of Books"One of the most perplexing novels of the modernist canon"—The ConversationAs I Lay Dying is a 1930 novel, in the genre of Southern Gothic by American author William Faulkner. Faulkner said that he wrote the novel from midnight to 4:00 AM over the course of six weeks and that he did not change a word of it. Faulkner wrote it while working at a power plant, published it in 1930, and described it as a "tour de force." Faulkner's fifth novel, it is consistently ranked among the best novels of 20th-century literature.The title derives from Book XI of Homer's Odyssey (William Marris's 1925 translation), wherein Agamemnon tells Odysseus: "As I lay dying, the woman with the dog's eyes would not close my eyes as I descended into Hades."The novel utilizes stream of consciousness writing technique, multiple narrators, and varying chapter lengths.
  • Intruder in the Dust

    William Faulkner

    Mass Market Paperback (Vintage, June 12, 1972)
    Book Description Release date: June 12, 1972 Set in the deep south that provided the backdrop for all of Faulkner's finest fiction, Intruder in the Dust is the novel that marks the final phase of its author's outstanding creative period. The chronicle of an elderly black farmer arrested for the murder of a white man and under threat from the lynch mob is a characteristically Faulknerian tale of dark omen, its sole ray of hope the character of the young white boy who repays an old favour by proving the innocence of the man who saved him from drowning in an icy creek.
