Full Description

Perhaps no one knew the intensely private William Faulkner better than his brother John. At the time of Bill's funeral, a reporter remarked that seeing John walking the streets of Oxford, Mississippi, was like encountering the ghost of his brother. Indeed John and Bill were mirrors of one another in many ways. In this memoir we find an intimate and at times humorous portrait of the Faulkner brothers from childhood through adulthood. John provides a keen view of the local characters and situations that Bill later used in his novels, including such classics as The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, and Absalom, Absalom!
