This early works on The history of the life of the late Mr Jonathan wild the Great is a fascinating novel of the period and still a fascinating read today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Soldier’s Pay is the first novel by the American Nobel Prize winner, who was later to publish INTRUDER IN THE DUST and LIGHT IN AUGUST. It was during the summer of 1925, when he was working in New Orleans, that Gaulkner 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 devoted father and his fickle sweetheart is set in Geoegia, but some of Faulkner’s feeling for the South and many of his character-types are already foreshadowed.
