<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The Sartoris family, who embody the antebellum ideal of Southern honor and its transformation through war, defeat, and Reconstruction, are the focal point of this outstanding novel.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>William Faulkner</b>, one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, was born in New Albany, Mississippi, on September 25, 1897. He published his first book, <i>The Marble Faun</i>, in 1924, but it is as a literary chronicler of life in the Deep South--particularly in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, the setting for several of his novels--that he is most highly regarded. In such novels as<i> The Sound and the Fury</i>, <i>As I Lay Dying</i>, <i>Light in August</i>, and <i>Absalom, Absalom!</i> he explored the full range of post-Civil War Southern life, focusing both on the personal histories of his characters and on the moral uncertainties of an increasingly dissolute society. In combining the use of symbolism with a stream-of-consciousness technique, he created a new approach to fiction writing. In 1949 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. William Faulkner died in Byhalia, Mississippi, on July 6, 1962.
