Product Description
A 1970 Penguin edition, of As I lay Dying by William Faulkner, first published in the UK in 1935.
One of William Faulkner's finest novels, As I Lay Dying, originally published in 1930, remains a captivating and stylistically innovative work. The story revolves around a grim yet darkly humorous pilgrimage, as Addie Bundren's family sets out to fulfill her last wish: to be buried in her native Jefferson, Mississippi, far from the miserable backwater surroundings of her married life. Told through multiple voices, As I Lay Dying vividly brings to life Faulkner's imaginary South, one of literature's great invented landscapes, and is replete with the poignant, impoverished, violent, and hypnotically fascinating characters that were his trademark.
There is a former owner's name to title page and general age browning to the page block, but otherwise a good copy. Closed 1 cm split between cover and spine on front lower corner.
