Its forty-five stories fall into three categories: those not included in Faulkner's earlier collections; previously unpublished short fiction; and stories that were later expanded into such novels as \u003ci\u003eThe Unvanquished\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Hamlet\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eGo Down, Moses\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eThe Uncollected Stories\u003c\/i\u003e of William Faulkner is an essential addition to its author's canon--as well as a book of some of the most haunting, harrowing, and atmospheric short fiction written in the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam Faulkner\u003c\/b\u003e, one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, was born in New Albany, Mississippi, on September 25, 1897. He published his first book, \u003ci\u003eThe Marble Faun\u003c\/i\u003e, in 1924, but it is as a literary chronicler of life in the Deep South--particularly in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, the setting for several of his novels--that he is most highly regarded. In such novels as\u003ci\u003e The Sound and the Fury\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAs I Lay Dying\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLight in August\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAbsalom, Absalom!\u003c\/i\u003e he explored the full range of post-Civil War Southern life, focusing both on the personal histories of his characters and on the moral uncertainties of an increasingly dissolute society. In combining the use of symbolism with a stream-of-consciousness technique, he created a new approach to fiction writing. In 1949 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. William Faulkner died in Byhalia, Mississippi, on July 6, 1962.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 736\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.34 x 8.01 x 5.22 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 02, 1997\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755627839776,"sku":"9780375701092","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/8b4c160f87dbab88eb56b8f43b9e94fd.webp?v=1780064018","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-uncollected-stories-of-william-faulkner-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
