As I Lay Dying By William Faulkner

As I Lay Dying is Faulkner’s harrowing account of the Bundren family’s odyssey across the Mississippi countryside to bury Addie, their wife and mother. Narrated in turn by each of the family members—including Addie herself—as well as others the novel ranges in mood, from dark comedy to the deepest pathos. The book is considered one of the most influential novels in American fiction in structure, style, and drama..

Oakland - The Seated Diesels discuss "Soldier's Pay" by William Faulkner

East Bay Booksellers (formerly Diesel, A Bookstore), Martedì, Agosto 21, 2012 alle 7pm

Diesel, A Bookstore in Oakland welcomes The Seated Diesels back to the store to discuss Soldier's Pay by William Faulkner on Tuesday, August 21st at 7pm.

Faulkner's first novel, SOLDIERS PAY (1926), is among the most memorable works to emerge from the First World War. Through the story of a wounded veteran's homecoming, it examines the impact of war on the people - particularly the women - who were left behind.

William Faulkner is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all American novelists and short-story writers. His other works include the novels The Sound and the Fury and Sanctuary. He twice won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and in 1949 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.

This event is free and all are welcome and encouraged to attend!

Breve biografia

Dati dalle informazioni generali inglesi. Modifica per tradurlo nella tua lingua.

William Cuthbert Faulkner (September 25, 1897 – July 6, 1962) was an American writer and Nobel Prize laureate from Oxford, Mississippi. Faulkner wrote novels, short stories, screenplays, poetry, essays, and a play. He is primarily known for his novels and short stories set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, based on Lafayette County, Mississippi, where he spent most of his life.

Faulkner is one of the most celebrated writers in American literature generally and Southern literature specifically. Though his work was published as early as 1919 and largely during the 1920s and 1930s, Faulkner's renown reached its peak upon the publication of Malcolm Cowley's The Portable Faulkner and his 1949 Nobel Prize in Literature, making him the only Mississippi-born Nobel winner. Two of his works, A Fable (1954) and his last novel The Reivers (1962), each won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. In 1998, the Modern Library ranked his 1929 novel The Sound and the Fury sixth on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century; also on the list were As I Lay Dying (1930) and Light in August (1932). Absalom, Absalom! (1936) appears on similar lists.
