| Sommario/riassunto: | In his life and writings, William Faulkner continually created and "performed" selves.Even in letters, he often played a part--gentleman dandy, soldier, farmer--while in his fictions these and other personae are counterpoised against one another to create a world of controlled chaos, made in Faulkner's own protean image and reflective of his own. |
