Light in August, a novel about hopeful perseverance in the face of mortality, features some of Faulkner's most memorable characters: guileless, dauntless Lena Grove, in search of the father of her unborn child; Reverend Gail Hightower, who is plagued by visions of Confederate horsemen; and Joe Christmas, a desperate, enigmatic drifter consumed by his mixed ancestry.
Classical American Literature by one of the most important southern authors: William Faulkner. The novel highlights for its important character descriptions. Faulkner enters deeply into the mind of each one of his characters and tells us a truly story from the South - that South that was still not understood after the Secession War.
Intense and brilliant.
