Description: 1951 Modern Library edition of "Absalom, Absalom!" By William Faulkner and copyright by Random House. The dust jacket is missing a small piece at the top and bottom of the spine. Inside flap shows $1.95 price. It has been placed in a clear archival wrapper for protection. The book's boards and binding are sound, although it is slightly cocked. The pages appear to be free from inscriptions, marginalization, and dog-eared pages. The top edge has been top stained with a faded red. First published in 1936, "Absalom, Absalom!" is widely considered William Faulkner's masterpiece and one of the finest works in American literature. It has also been described as the most important novel by any white American writerto confront the problem of race. Taking place before, during, and after the American Civil War, it is a story aboutthree families of the American South, with a focus on the life of Thomas Sutpen. Faulkners inclusion of then-daring topics such as incest and lust against a backdrop of fratricide and slavery were controversial, and many Southern readers considered Faulkners exposure of social hypocrisy, to be an act of betrayal. If you celebrate the freedom to read, "Absalom, Absalom!" Is an excellent addition to your library shelf.
