xvii, 716 pp. 8vo. Forty-five stories by the Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning author of The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, and Light in August. Introduction by Joseph Blotner, notes and bibliography follow text. "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 Its forty-five stories fall into three categories: those not included in Faulkner's earlier collections; previously unpublished short fiction; and stories that were later expanded into such novels as The Unvanquished, The Hamlet, and Go Down, Moses... some of the most haunting, harrowing, and atmospheric short fiction written in the twentieth century.
