William Faulkner
These 13 Stories 1st Ed
NY: Jonathan Cape & Harrison Smith. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. N.D. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 358 pages; William Cuthbert Faulkner was an American writer and Nobel Prize laureate from Oxford Mississippi. Faulkner worked in a variety of media; he wrote novels short stories a play poetry essays and screenplays during his career. He is primarily known and acclaimed for his novels and short stories many of which are set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County a setting Faulkner created based on Lafayette County where he spent most of his childhood. Faulkner is considered one of the most important writers of the Southern literature of the United States along with Mark Twain Robert Penn Warren Flannery O'Connor Truman Capote Eudora Welty Thomas Wolfe Harper Lee and Tennessee Williams. Though his work was published as early as 1919 and largely during the 1920s and 1930s Faulkner was relatively unknown until receiving the 1949 Nobel Prize in Literature. Two of his works "A Fable" 1954 and his last novel "The Reivers" 1962 both won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Width: 5.25" Height: 8" "The reputation of William Faulkner has been growing so steadily for the last five years that the publication of a new book by him becomes an event of importance in contemporary American literature. Some of the longer stories in 'These Thirteen' have never before been published and Faulkner enthusiasts should turn immediately to 'All the Dead Pilots' and 'Victory' if they wish to trace the latest development of his work. Others of the stories have been published in 'Scribner's Magazine' 'The Forum' 'The American Mercury' and one in the 'Saturday Evening Post.' The stories may be taken to represent various moods of the author over a period of the last two years. There is the macabre quality of 'A Rose for Emily'; a return to the mood of 'The Sound and the Fury' in 'The Evening Sun'; the gift for straight narrative in 'Red Leaves.' "This is the first collection of William Faulkner's stories to be published." From the front flap of the dust jacket. Stated first edition of this work. This volume is bound in blue and gray cloth with red lettering on the spine. There is some sunning to the covers as well as minor bumping to the corners. The binding is sound. The text block is adorned with blue and white pictorial endpapers. The pages exhibit light age toning concentrated at the extremities. Original blue cloth with white cloth spineThis work is preserved in an intact dust jacket illustrated by Arthur Hawkins. The jacket displays light age toning with darkened fully legible spine and shallow 1/16-1/4" chips at head and foot of spine. A price of $2.50 is printed in the lower right corner of the front flap. The jacket is protected by a paper-backed mylar cover. This volume has been collated and is complete. The dedication acknowledgement and table of contents pages are uncut at the bottom edge. A very small spot of foxing shows at the bottom margin of pages 258-59 otherwise the text is Fine. First Edition Vintage Short Story Collection American Literature Hawkins Illustrated Dust Jacket .

WILLIAM FAULKNER, (1897-1962).
UNCOMMON FIRST TURKISH EDITION OF FAULKNER'S MASTERPIECE Ses ve öfke. = The sound and the fury. Preface by Talat Sait Halman. Translated by Rasih Güran 1915-1970.
Istanbul: Remzi Kitabevi / Yükselen Matbaasi 1965. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Original illustrated wrappers. Cr. 8vo. 20 x 14 cm. In Turkish. 332 p. Uncommon First Turkish Edition of Faulkner's "The Sound And The Fury" with its extremely rare fine-designed and illustrated dust wrapper. This is the very first translation of Faulkner's masterpiece into Turkish and one of the earliest examples of the 20th-century modernist novel introduced to Turkish readers. Three paper copies are located in OCLC only one of which is in American libraries: 18596392 872736644 the University of Mississippi and also Danish Union Catalogue and Danish National Bibliography Bogaziçi University Library. SOME EXTRA INFORMATION FOR THIS EDITION AND TRANSLATOR: In his preface for this edition Talat Sait Halman 1931-2014 - Turkish Minister of Culture at that time warns the Turkish readers about the literary conventions of the modernist novel that they still were not accustomed to in the 1960s. He invites readers to read The Sound and the Fury emphasizing that the Turkish readers who read the work "in-depth" will have a "different aesthetic view". It seems that this book was a very different experience for the Turkish readers of the time who are accustomed to the conventions of literary realism and mimetic aesthetics. Rasih Güran 1915-1970 was a proficient translator who introduced some foremost novels of American literature to the Turkish language like The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. Güran wrote that he preferred Faulkner's most difficult novel to translate because he "had enough insight" to translate it in his "translator's note" of this 1965 edition. He was a member of the Turkish Communist Party and close to the art community as being the nephew of Turkish painter Nazmi Ziya 1881-1937 and avant-garde poet Nazim Hikmet 1902-1963. He committed suicide in 1970. <br/> <br/> Remzi Kitabevi / Yükselen Matbaasi paperback
