Faulkner William Absalom, Absalom!
In neuer Ubersetzung von Nikolaus Stingl: «Absalom, Absalom», der vielleicht beruhmteste und beste Roman aus dem Faulkner'schen Mythos des Yoknapatawpha Cunty in Mississippi. Aus der biblischen Geschichte von Absalom, in die Zeit des amerikanischen Burgerkriegs versetzt, wird die Geschichte der Sutpens erzahlt, die sich uber mehr als ein Jahrhundert erstreckt. Thomas Sutpen stammt aus einer armen wei?en Familie, heiratet auf Haiti die reiche Eulalia Bon und taucht 1833 plotzlich mit einem Haufen schwarzer Sklaven in Jefferson auf, wo er Land kauft, ein Herrenhaus errichtet, ein zweites Mal heiratet und gesellschaftliches Ansehen erwirbt. Er hat aus dieser Ehe zwei Kinder, Judith und Henry, aber er hat eben auch einen Sohn aus der ersten Ehe, Charles Bon, einen Studienfreund Henrys, der sich ahnungslos in Judith verliebt. Nach Ende des Burgerkriegs, der die Liebenden fur eine Weile trennt, kommt es zu einer fatalen Begegnung zwischen Charles und Henry, in deren Verlauf Henry seinen Halbbruder erschie?t – nicht etwa wegen des drohenden Inzests, sondern wegen des moglichen «Negerbluts» in den Adern von Charles. Henry flieht und lasst seinen Vater ohne mannlichen Erben zuruck, womit der Niedergang der Familie Sutpen besiegelt scheint ... All das kommt bruchstuckhaft vor die Augen des Lesers, mit gro?en Zeitsprungen und einer Erzahltechnik, die den amerikanischen Roman revolutioniert und zahlreiche Schriftsteller weltweit beeinflusst hat. Es geht um Schuld und Schuldgefuhle der Sklavenhaltergesellschaft, den unmoglichen Versuch, die Niederlage im Burgerkrieg als notwendig zu erkennen, die Macht des Geldes und die Verwustungen, die es anrichtet. Es ist ein phantastisches Zeitbild, heute so modern und aktuell wie damals.

Secrets from his own past threaten to ruin the lives of his children and destroy everything he has worked for.

Faulkner William Sanctuary
Spolit, feckless Temple Drake, the daughter of a judge, runs away from school with an unsuitable man. Abandoned by him with a gang of moonshiners, Temple falls into the clutches of the psychotic Popeye, one of the most grotesque characters of Faulkner's imagination. A compelling, shocking tale of perverted justice in the Deep South, Sanctuary is also a moving plea for courage in the darkest of circumstances.

Faulkner William Wild Palms
'Between grief and nothing I will take grief' In New Orleans in 1937, a man and woman embark on a headlong flight into the wilderness of illicit passion, fleeing her husband and the temptations of respectability. In Mississippi ten years earlier, a convict sets forth across a flooded river, risking his one chance at freedom to rescue a pregnant woman. From these separate stories Faulkner composes a symphony of deliverance and damnation, survival and self-sacrifice, a novel in which elemental danger is juxtaposed with fatal injuries of the spirit.
