Faulkner’s Greatest Novel

Southern Comfort

<p>Novelist C.E. Morgan says <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/August-Modern-Library-William-Faulkner/dp/067964248X/" target="_blank">Light in August</a></i>, newly reissued this month, is Faulkner’s claim to the Great American Novel. It’s even more central to the author’s canon than <i>Sound and the Fury</i> or <i>As I Lay Dying</i>, because of its one ineradicably American concern—race.</p>
