Bøger af Noel Polk

Offers a close examination and interpretation of Absalom, Absalom!. Here difficult words and cultural terms that might prove to be a problem for general readers are explained and keyed to page numbers in the definitive Faulkner text (Library of America and Vintage editions). The authors place Faulkner's novel in its historical context, while also connecting it to his other works.

Collects Noel Polk's essays from the late-1970s to 2005. Featuring an introduction that places Faulkner and Welty at the centre of the South's literary heritage, the volume asks useful, probing questions about southern literature and provides insightful analysis.

The poems in the first part of this book are set in and/or inspired by a walking safari in the South Luangwa Valley of Zambia in the summer of 2010. Some of the poems are whimsical responses to the guidebook, others taking serious the Mississippi-Africa axis in race relations.
