Book summary

This 1927 satirical novel is set in New Orleans, where Faulkner lived briefly as a young man.

Media reviews

"It approaches in the first half and reaches in the second half a brilliance that you can rightfully expect only in the writings of a few men. It is full of the fine kind of swift and lusty writing that comes from a healthy, fresh pen."
