Der Roman 'Griff in den Staub' nimmt innerhalb des Gesamtwerks Faulkners eine Schlüsselstellung ein. Yoknapatawpha County, seine Bewohner und deren politische Ansichten dienen Faulkner in diesem Buch als Spiegelfläche für seine eigenen Gedanken über die Stellung der Südstaaten, die Politik der Nordstaaten und das Rassenproblem.

You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore. William Faulkner These short works offer three different approaches to Faulkner, each representative of his work as a whole. "Spotted Horses" is a hilarious account of a horse auction, and pits the cold practicality of women against the boyish folly of men. "Old Man" is something of an adventure story. When a flood ravages the countryside of the lower Mississippi, a convict finds himself adrift with a pregnant woman. And "The Bear," perhaps his best known shorter work, is the story of a boy s coming to...

This sequel to Faulkner's most sensational, Sanctuary, was written twenty years later but takes up the story of Temple Drake eight years after the events related in Sanctuary. Temple is now married to Gowan Stevens. The book begins when the death sentence is pronounced on the nurse Nancy for the murder of Temple and Gowan's child. Told partly in prose, partly in play form, Requiem for a Nun is a haunting exploration of the impact of the past on the present.

This is the second volume of Faulkner s trilogy about the Snopes family, his symbol for the grasping, destructive element in the post-bellum South. Like its predecessor, The Hamlet, and its successor, The Mansion, The Town is completely self-contained, but it gains resonance from being read with the other two. The story of Flem Snopes s ruthless struggle to take over the town of Jefferson, Mississippi, the book is rich in typically Faulknerian episodes of humor and profundity.
