It is the first to inquire into the three most important women in his life -- his black and white mothers, Caroline Barr and Maud Falkner, and the childhood friend who became his wife, Estelle Oldham. In this new exploration of Faulkner's creative process, Judith L. Sensibar discovers that these women's relationships with Faulkner were not simply close; they gave life to his imagination. Sensibar brings to the foreground -- as Faulkner did -- this 'female world,' an approach unprecedented in Faulkner biography. Through extensive research in untapped biographical sources -- archival materials and interviews with these women's families and other members of the communities in which they lived -- Sensibar transcends existing scholarship and reconnects Faulkner's biography to his work. She demonstrates how the themes of race, tormented love, and addiction that permeated his fiction had their origins in his three defining relationships with women. Sensibar alters and enriches our understanding not only of Faulkner, his art, and the complex world of the American South that came to life in his brilliant fiction but also of darknesses, fears, and unspokens that Faulkner unveiled in the American psyche." -- Book jacket. 600 10 Faulkner, William,|d1897-1962|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79003304|xFamily.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005743 600 10 Faulkner, William,|d1897-1962|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79003304|xChildhood and youth.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99004940 600 17 Faulkner, William,|d1897-1962.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/29774 648 7 20th century|2fast 650 0 Novelists, American|y20th century|xFamily relationships. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008108456 650 0 Women in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85147587 650 7 Families.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1728849 650 7 Novelists, American.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1039688 650 7 Women in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1177912 651 0 Oxford (Miss.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n82006806|xSocial life and customs.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2001008851 856 41 |3Table of contents only|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc /ecip0828/2008040283.html 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 564664 994 C0|bRID
