The Unvanquished

A small novel created based on an early cycle of stories by Faulkner, which the writer worked on for many years, rewriting and consolidating it into a whole. Seven stories from the life of the small town of Yoknapatawpha during the Civil War and the Reconstruction of the South, told by the growing Bayard Sartoris, who goes from being an enthusiastic boy to a young man. Stories about cheerful adventures, friendship, love, and death. Stories about a war that Southerners will never forget, who consider themselves unvanquished.
