Description of Famous Authors - William Faulkner
"Drawing on old maps, contemporary drawings and paintings, portraits and other archive material, the excellent Famous Authors series not only presents a factual outline of the writers? lives, but also conveys a clear visual picture of the social and historical background to their writing. Recommended for all ages." ?THE GOOD BOOK GUIDE Faulkner created an immense gallery of vivid and unforgettable characters in his portrayal of the southern social aftermath of the Civil War. In most of his novels set in the imaginary Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi, he created a complex social structure from which he explored the southern past, race relations, and the alienation felt by his contemporaries in that volatile society. He was also known for employing other facets of his life including odd jobs and his grandfather?s violent death at the war in Sartoris. He did not receive any real popular success until Sanctuary in 1931. In the thirties, he came to be known for the melodramatic violence in his writing and for exposing the tragic aspects of southern history. His career culminated with a Pulitzer Prize for A Fable.Bestsellers in DVD
