The master of the short tale was William Faulkner. The majority of the pieces in this collection date from his most productive period as a writer, almost fifteen years beginning in 1929, when he released The Sound and the Fury. They cover many of the themes addressed in the novels and include Faulkner's characters from small-town Mississippi life.
The Nobel Prize-winning author William Faulkner's magisterial collection of short pieces reminds listeners of his ability to compress his grand vision into narratives as harsh and painful as bullets. Classics like "A Bear Hunt, " "A Rose for Emily, " "Two Soldiers, " and "The Brooch" are among the 42 selections in this audiobook.
