For twenty long years after the release of his first novel “Soldier’s Reward,” William Faulkner remained known mostly only to a narrow circle of literary critics. The general public did not understand and did not accept his works, considering them too complex and unusual. The situation changed only in 1949, after the writer received the Nobel Prize in Literature. By that time he was already long loved and respected in Europe, and now he gained recognition at home as well.
