Uncollected stories of William Faulkner / edited by Joseph Blotner.

Faulkner, William, 1897-1962 (Author). Blotner, Joseph, 1923- (Added Author).

Summary:

This invaluable volume contains some of the greatest short fiction by a writer who defined the course of American literature. Its forty-five stories fall into three categories: those not included in Faulkner’s earlier collections; previously unpublished short fiction; and stories that were later expanded into such novels as The Unvanquished , The Hamlet , and Go Down, Moses . The Uncollected Stories of William Faulkner is an essential addition to its author’s canon—as well as a book of some of the most haunting, harrowing, and atmospheric short fiction written in the twentieth century.
