Flags in the Dust
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Flags in the Dust is a novel written by William Faulkner, completed in 1927. It is the first novel set in his fictional Yoknapatawpha County. His publisher heavily edited the manuscript with Faulkner's reluctant consent, removing about 40,000 words in the process. That version was published as Sartoris in 1929. Faulkner's original transcript of Flags in the Dust was published in 1973, and Sartoris was subsequently taken out of print.
