Both novels' und ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-230-34044-2, ISBN: 0-230-34044-X

"Race and White Identity in Southern Fiction explores a form of racial passing that has gone largely unnoticed.

In the fiction of su ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-292-75114-9, ISBN: 0-292-75114-1

"Is William Faulkner's fiction built on a fundamental dichotomy of outcast individual versus the healthy agrarian community? The New Critics of the 1930s advanced this view, and it has shaped much Faulkner criticism. However, in Faulkner's Marginal Couple, John Duvall posits the existence of another possibility, alternative communities formed by "deviant" couples.
