  • Description

    One of America’s great novelists, William Faulkner was a writer deeply rooted in the American South. Now, in William Faulkner and Southern History, one of America’s most acclaimed historians of the South, Joel Williamson, weaves together a perceptive biography of Faulkner himself, an astute analysis of his works, and a revealing history of Faulkner’s ancestors in Mississippi–a family history that becomes, in Williamson’s skilled hands, a vivid portrait of Southern culture itself. He also shows that, while Faulkner’s ancestors were no ordinary people, and while he sometimes flashed a curious pride in them, Faulkner came to embrace a pervasive sense of shame concerning both his family and his culture.
