Description
2022 Reprint of the 1926 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Faulkner's first novel, Soldiers' Pay, is among the most memorable works to emerge from the First World War. Through the story of a wounded veteran's homecoming, it examines the impact of soldiers' return from war on the people―particularly the women―who were left behind. It was written during the summer of 1925, while he was working in New Orleans, that Faulkner met Sherwood Anderson and was encouraged by him to write a novel.
Unlike his later books this post-war story of a wounded, helpless and dying officer returning home to his father and his fickle sweetheart is set in Georgia, but some of Faulkner's feeling for the south and many of his character-types are already foreshadowed.
