"As I Lay Dying" is a dark comedy, full of horror & compassion, of a rural Mississippi family bearing the corpse of their matriarch to burial in town. "Sanctuary", a violent novel of sex & social class that moves from Mississippi back roads to the fleshpots of Memphis, features a sadistic gangster named Popeye & a debutante w/ an affinity for evil. "Light in August", a near-religious vision of the hopeful stubbornness of ordinary life, is perhaps Faulkner's most moving work. "Pylon", a tale of barnstorming aviators, examines bonds of loyalty & desire among 3 men & a woman. All 4 novels are presented in restored texts as part of The LOA's new authoritative edition of Faulkner's complete works. * ABOUT THE LIBRARY OF AMERICAl: The LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best and most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts.
