"</em></p><p><strong>/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////</strong></p><p><strong>William Cuthbert Faulkner September 25 1897 – July 6 1962 was an American writer known for his novels and short stories set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County based on Lafayette County Mississippi where Faulkner spent most of his life. A Nobel laureate Faulkner is one of the most celebrated writers of American literature and often is considered the greatest writer of Southern literature.</strong></p><p><strong>Faulkner was born in New Albany Mississippi and his family moved to Oxford Mississippi when he was a child. With the outbreak of World War I he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force but did not serve in combat. Returning to Oxford he attended the University of Mississippi for three semesters before dropping out. He moved to New Orleans where he wrote his first novel Soldiers' Pay 1925. He went back to Oxford and wrote Sartoris 1927 his first work set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County. In 1929 he published The Sound and the Fury. The following year he wrote As I Lay Dying. Later that decade he wrote Light in August Absalom Absalom! and The Wild Palms. He also worked as a screenwriter contributing to Howard Hawks's To Have and Have Not and The Big Sleep; the former film adapted from a novel by Ernest Hemingway is the only film with contributions by two Nobel laureates.</strong></p><p><strong>Faulkner's renown reached its peak upon the publication of Malcolm Cowley's The Portable Faulkner and his being awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize in Literature for "his powerful and unique contribution to the modern American novel." He is the only Mississippi-born Nobel laureate. Two of his works A Fable 1954 and The Reivers 1962 won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Faulkner died from a heart attack on July 6 1962 following a fall from his horse the prior month. Ralph Ellison called him "the greatest artist the South has produced".</strong></p><p><em>The above text was taken from respectively Knopf Doubleday publishing via Google Books and Wikipedia.</em></p> Jonathan Cape : Harrison Cape hardcover
