Commentary by Stephen M. Ross and Noel Polk.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> A novel by the American author William Faulkner 1897-1962The Sound and the Fury employs several narrative styles including stream of consciousness. Published in 1929 The Sound and the Fury was Faulkner's fourth novel and was not immediately successful. In 1931 however when Faulkner's sixth novel Sanctuary was published the book became a commercial success with Faulkner beginning to receive critical attention. "I wish publishing was advanced enough to use colored ink . I'll just have to save the idea until publishing grows up to it." - William Faulkner 1929. It was much later with this edition that The Folio Society determined that it could be printed in color and drew on the expertise of two noted scholars to work on fulfilling Faulkner's idea. Stephen M. Ross and Noel Polk undertook the painstaking task of identifying each different time-level to be coloured while keeping the original italic-roman shifts. Thus this edition is the FIRST publication of any copy of The Sound and The Fury with colored text. The Folio Society unknown

193250871Dallas: The Book Club of Texas 1932. Very good plus. Limited edition of Faulkner's story of a wretched girl with a tyrannical mother its first and only publication until its inclusion in 1979's UNCOLLECTED STORIES OF WILLIAM FAULKNER. Completed in 1928 "Miss Zilphia Gant" impressed Alfred Dashiell of Scribner's Magazine as "by far the most coherent thing of yours I have seen"; this did not mean however that he was willing to publish it. The story - a bleak and downright Gorey-esque study of a wan and haunted waif with eyes like holes in blotting paper who grows up to run screaming through the dark in her nightdress - was subsequently accepted by THE SOUTHWEST REVIEW but not published there due to Faulkner's unwillingness to make requested cuts. Even after its rediscovery and reprinting in the 1970s "Miss Zilphia Gant" was never elevated to the exalted status of longtime anthology-fixture "A Rose For Emily" but it deserved to be. Scarce. 8'' x 5.25''. Original gilt-stamped brown cloth. 29 1 pages. Edition of 300 copies designed and printed by J.M. Colville & Son this copy no. 273.
