Sherwood Anderson and Other Famous Creoles

<div><P><B>The unforgettable tale of an American soldier&rsquo;s return home from WWI by the Nobel Prize&ndash;winning author of <I>The Sound and the Fury</I>.</B></P><P>Lt. Donald Mahon served as a fighter pilot in the Great War. After suffering a terrible head injury, he was released from the hospital with lost memories and a disfiguring scar. Now, back in America, he makes his way home to Georgia with the help of a fellow veteran and a young war widow. But as his health continues to decline, what home will be left for him?</P> First published in 1926, William Faulkner&rsquo;s debut novel explores the horrors of World War I, the interior lives of veterans, and the fickle nature of small-town American life. It &ldquo;tells an old story&mdash;as old as the Greeks&mdash;and older&mdash;as old as war and its folly&rdquo; (<I>The New York Times</I>).</div>

Soldiers' Pay

<div><B>This Nobel Prize&ndash;winning author&rsquo;s satirical Southern novel is &ldquo;full of the kind of swift and lusty writing that comes from a healthy, fresh pen&rdquo; (Lillian Hellman, <I>New York Herald Tribune</I>).</B><BR />  <BR /> If ever there was a William Faulkner novel that could be called a portrait of the artist as a young man, <I>Mosquitoes </I>is that book. Set on a yacht excursion on Lake Pontchartrain, Faulkner&rsquo;s second novel introduces his readers to the artistic community of New Orleans, a vibrant band of aspiring artists, charismatic dilettantes and social butterflies. A satiric look at the world Faulkner himself inhabited in his early years as a writer, <I>Mosquitoes</I> is a high-spirted, engaging novel from the Nobel laureate&ndash;winning author known for his classic portrayals of the American South.<BR /><BR /> &ldquo;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.&rdquo; &mdash;Lillian Hellman</div>
