FAULKNER, William. Absalom, Absalom!. London, Chatto and Windus, 1936.

Price: US$434.35 + shipping

Condition: Very Good

Description: 8vo, publisher's cloth, 384 pp.; nice copy, light soiling to boards, without dust jacket. First UK edition of one of Faulkner's best-known works, published in the same year as the first American edition. Illustrated with a folding map to the rear. 'Absalom, Absalom!' tells the epic generational story of three families and is considered a classic of the Southern Gothic genre which sets the mystery, mayhem, and family curses of Gothic fiction in America s Deep South. A masterpiece of modernist literature for its uses of flashback, inner monologue and multiple narrators, it's a novel that looks at the relationship between past and present and, in particular, what responsibility we bear for the actions of our ancestors.
