The four novels in this Library of America collection display an astonishing range of characters and treatments in his Depression-era fiction. This edition of Faulkner’s work publishes, for the first time, new, corrected texts of these four works. Manuscripts, typescripts, galleys, and published editions have been collated to produce versions that are free of the changes introduced by the original editors and that are faithful to Faulkner’s intentions.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAs I Lay Dying\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1930) presents the conscious, unconscious, and sometimes hallucinatory impressions of the husband, daughter, and four sons of Addie Bundren, the long-suffering matriarch of her rural Mississippi clan, as the family marches her body through fire and flood to its grave in town.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSanctuary\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1931) is a novel of sex and social class, of collapsed gentility and amoral justice, that moves from the back roads of Mississippi and the fleshpots of Memphis to the courthouse of Jefferson and the appalling spectacle of popular vengeance. With its fascinating portraits of Popeye, a sadistic gangster and rapist, and Temple Drake, a debutante with an affinity for evil, it offers a horrific and sometimes comically macabre vision of modern life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eLight in August\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1932) incorporates Faulkner’s religious vision of the hopeful stubbornness of ordinary life.

K. Narayan (1906—2001) witnessed nearly a century of change in his native India and captured it in fiction of uncommon warmth and vibrancy. The four novels collected here, all written during British rule, bring colonial India into intimate focus through the narrative gifts of this master of literary realism. Swami and Friends introduces us to Narayan’s beloved fictional town of Malgudi, where ten-year-old Swaminathan’s excitement about his country’s initial stirrings for independence competes with his ardor for cricket and all other things British. The Bachelor of Arts is a poignant coming-of-age novel about a young man flush with first love, but whose freedom to pursue it is hindered by the fixed ideas of his traditional Hindu family. In The Dark Room , Narayan’s portrait of aggrieved domesticity, the docile and obedient Savitri, like many Malgudi women, is torn between submitting to her husband’s humiliations and trying to escape them. The title character in The English Teacher , Narayan’s most autobiographical novel, searches for meaning when the death of his young wife deprives him of his greatest source of happiness. These pioneering novels, luminous in their detail and refreshingly free of artifice, are a gift to twentieth-century literature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bookshop Apocalypse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44959420023033,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/3103\/1574\/files\/RKNarayan-1sq.jpg?v=1714764732"},{"product_id":"the-hunting-of-the-snark-by-lewis-carroll-the-folio-society-2010-rare-u-k-illustrated-edition","title":"The Hunting of the Snark by Lewis Carroll [ILLUSTRATED COLLECTORS EDITION] U.K. 2010 • Folio Society","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Hunting of the Snark: An Agony in Eight Fits by Lewis Carroll introduced by Michael Rosen with illustrations by Jeffrey Fisher\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eILLUSTRATED U.K. COLLECTOR'S EDITION [2010] THE FOLIO SOCIETY \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBeautiful limited edition hardcover with full colour abstract inspired illustrations by Jeffrey Fisher.   Does not include original slipcase.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLarge hardcover with pictorial boards in beautiful condition.   Near mint w\/ short gift inscription on front endpaper. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e'They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care; They pursued it with forks and hope; They threatened its life with a railway share; They charmed it with smiles and soap'. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEver since Lewis Carroll's nonsense epic appeared in 1876, readers have joined his ten-man Snark-hunting crew and pursued the search with great enthusiasm.

But as night closes in, Will has a sense of foreboding: a stranger is watching him; the farm animals are disturbed. Even friendly Farmer Dawson is acting oddly – he hands Will a strange iron symbol, warning him that 'The Walker is abroad ... this night will be bad'. Soon, Will is gripped by cold fear. When he wakes the next morning, he discovers that everything has changed. On the threshold of adolescence, Will, the seventh son of a seventh son, has received the double-edged gift of magic. Aided by the Old Ones – the men and women of the Light, and most importantly Merriman Lyon – Will is ultimately led into a confrontation with the Dark.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe second book in the eponymous series, The Dark is Rising is Susan Cooper's most famous work, a coming-of-age story and fantasy that deftly weaves in elements of the myths and legends at the heart of British culture. For this edition, Cooper has written a new preface in which she describes how moving to the United States helped her to write with greater clarity and sensitivity about the beauty of rural England. Most formative, though, was her time at Oxford University, studying under J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis, who ensured 'that we were soaked in the earliest fantasies of all’ – from Beowulf to The Faerie Queene.
