A Fable is an allegoric story based on the final days of Jesus Christ and is written by William Faulkner. The novel takes place during World War I most specifically in the trenches in France. A Fable stretches through a course of one week in which the main character is “Corporal Stephen”, whom narrates from his point of view in the trenches of France. William Faulkner personally puts into his novel his own experience in World War I. Faulkner is a veteran of World War I, so when reading upon his book he is giving actual facts of the conditions during an important war in world history. Corporal Stephen, the main character, resembles the most famous person in Christianity the lord Jesus Christ. A Fable is ultimately a very powerful novel about the lives that tried to change the course of history with the action of peace. The man himself never stood taller than five feet, six inches tall, but in the realm of American literature, William Faulkner is a giant. More than simply a renowned Mississippi writer, the Nobel Prize-winning novelist and short story writer is acclaimed throughout the world as one of the twentieth century’s greatest writers, one who transformed his “postage stamp” of native soil into an apocryphal setting in which he explored, articulated, and challenged “the old verities and truths of the heart.” During what is generally considered his period of greatest artistic achievement, from The Sound and the Fury in 1929 to Go Down, Moses in 1942, Faulkner accomplished in a little over a decade more artistically than most writers accomplish over a lifetime of writing. It is one of the more remarkable feats of American literature, how a young man who never graduated from high school, never received a college degree, living in a small town in the poorest state in the nation, all the while balancing a growing family of dependents and impending financial ruin, could during the Great Depression write a series of novels all set in the same small Southern county ー novels that include As I Lay Dying, Light in August, and above all, Absalom, Absalom!?
ー that would one day be recognized as among the greatest novels ever written by an American.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
