The only place you can find Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi, is in the Nobel Prize-winning fiction of William Faulkner. The imagined lives of its residents form an exploration of suffering, love and family that has been acknowledged as one of the great literary achievements of the 20th century. Along the way, Faulkner set a tone for Southern literature that influences writers decades later.

Faulkner performed a labor of imagination that has not been equaled in our time... first, to invent a Mississippi county that was like a mythical kindgom, but was complete and living in all its details; second, to make his story of Yoknapatawpha County stand as a parable or legend of all the Deep South. Malcolm Cowley

Then they went on, and I went along the fence. Luster came away from the flower tree and we went along the fence and they stopped and we stopped and I looked through...

He went to Canada, where he pretended to be an Englishman and joined the RAF training program there. Although he did not complete his training...
