Summary
  • This memorable collection of black-and-white photographs focuses on William Faulkner's homeland, which his great corpus of fiction transformed into Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi.
  • Martin J. Dain photographed Faulkner country during the last two years of the author's life (1961-62). His images of Yoknapatawpha evoke the wonderful spirit and exactitude of the land and the people Faulkner wrote about. It was the photographer's reverence for the writings of the Nobel Prize-winning author that stimulated him to travel to Mississippi with his camera.
