FAULKNER, William
Sartoris.
New York: Harcourt Brace 1929. In a bright example of the fragile jacket First edition first printing of Faulkner's first Yoknapatawpha novel rare in the jacket. Sartoris was the only part of Flags in the Dust to be published during Faulkner's lifetime. He told his publisher: "At last and certainly I have written THE book of which those other things were but foals. I believe it is the damdest sic best book you'll look at this year and any other publisher" quoted by Weinstein p. 25. He had completed the novel in 1927 but his publisher edited the text down substantially: the full text was not published until 1973 over a decade after Faulkner's death. It was Faulkner's debut as a Southern writer drawing on a roster of types "ranging from garrulous old white men to deranged white youths and low-lives as well as to a hill-country family nestled in the backwoods and steeped in earlier ways. And this is not to mention its three generations of black servants managing to eke out their lives under inattentive white masters" ibid p. 24. Octavo. Original black cloth spine and front cover lettered in red top edge red others untrimmed. With the dust jacket designed by Arthur Hawkins. Spine ends and outer corners of front cover lightly bumped fresh and bright; spine panel sunned with shallow loss at ends tape repair on verso of rear flap a few tiny chips and nicks unclipped: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.
