More Information
William Faulkner was born in Mississippi on 25 September 1897
part of a traditional southern family. He dropped out of college to try his hand
at poetry, strangely later joining the RAF after claiming to be English. His
literary career stuttered and started but found success eventually producing
what are regarded as 6 masterpieces in only 6 years, an incredible feat. His
standing and importance to American literature cannot be overstated and goes
well beyond the confines of this page not to mention the abilities of the person
writing this. William Cuthbert Falkner stands alongside Hemingway as one of the
greatest American writers of the 20th century.
