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.

37357NY: Jonathan Cape & Harrison Smith. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. N.D. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 358 pages; William Cuthbert Faulkner was an American writer and Nobel Prize laureate from Oxford Mississippi. Faulkner worked in a variety of media; he wrote novels short stories a play poetry essays and screenplays during his career. He is primarily known and acclaimed for his novels and short stories many of which are set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County a setting Faulkner created based on Lafayette County where he spent most of his childhood. Faulkner is considered one of the most important writers of the Southern literature of the United States along with Mark Twain Robert Penn Warren Flannery O'Connor Truman Capote Eudora Welty Thomas Wolfe Harper Lee and Tennessee Williams. Though his work was published as early as 1919 and largely during the 1920s and 1930s Faulkner was relatively unknown until receiving the 1949 Nobel Prize in Literature. Two of his works "A Fable" 1954 and his last novel "The Reivers" 1962 both won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Width: 5.25" Height: 8" "The reputation of William Faulkner has been growing so steadily for the last five years that the publication of a new book by him becomes an event of importance in contemporary American literature. Some of the longer stories in 'These Thirteen' have never before been published and Faulkner enthusiasts should turn immediately to 'All the Dead Pilots' and 'Victory' if they wish to trace the latest development of his work. Others of the stories have been published in 'Scribner's Magazine' 'The Forum' 'The American Mercury' and one in the 'Saturday Evening Post.' The stories may be taken to represent various moods of the author over a period of the last two years. There is the macabre quality of 'A Rose for Emily'; a return to the mood of 'The Sound and the Fury' in 'The Evening Sun'; the gift for straight narrative in 'Red Leaves.'
