William Faulkner
About
William Faulkner (1897-1962) is generally regarded as one of the most significant American writers of all time. He was born into an old Southern family and grew up in Oxford, Mississippi. Except for some trips to Europe and Asia, and a few brief stays in Hollywood as a scriptwriter, he worked on his novels and short stories on a farm in Oxford. Faulkner wrote thirteen novels and many short stories but started as a poet. With his breakthrough novel, The Sound and the Fury, he began to use a stream of consciousness to portray a character’s flow of inner thoughts. Faulkner was awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize for Literature.
