Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good+. William Faulkner was a master of the short story. Most of the pieces in this collection are drawn from the greatest period in his writing life, the fifteen or so years beginning in 1929, when he published The Sound and the Fury. They explore many of the themes found in the novels and feature characters of small-town Mississippi life that are uniquely Faulkner?s. In A Rose for Emily, the first of his stories to appear in a national magazine, a straightforward, neighborly narrator relates a tale of love, betrayal, and murder. The vicious family of the Snopes trilogy turns up in Barn Burning, about a son?s response to the activities of his arsonist father. And Jason and Caddy Compson, two other inhabitants of Faulkner?s mythical Yoknapatawpha County, are witnesses to the terrorizing of a pregnant black laundress in That Evening Sun. These and the other stories gathered here attest to the fact that Faulkner is, as Ralph Ellison so aptly noted, the greatest artist the South has produced.

This is 13 Faulkner stories chosen by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer: Barn Burning, Two Soldiers, A Rose for Emily, Dry September, That Evening Sun, Red Leaves, Lo!, Turnabout, Honor, There Was a Queen, Mountain Victory, Beyond, Race at Morning. 306 pages plus Modern Library catalogue list. The original price tag IS stamped on the 1st of two title pages. It was bought by a student, who wrote notes in it and then, evidently, stopped reading at page 25, which is where the last note appears. After that, it is pristine. The cover is like new navy blue boards with a bright gold and black design on cover and spine. The dust jacket is, as you can see, in good condition; there is a small tear at the lower right fold, some shelf wear on the spine, but the back is perfect.

Armed Services Editions were a project of the nonprofit Council on Books in Wartime, whose motto was "Books are Weapons in the War of Ideas." They are now highly sought for their historical significance and ephemeral charm. 4'' x 5.5''. Original wrappers. 254, [1] pages. Light edgewear and scuffing, pages toned.
