Though numerous biographies have been published on William Faulkner, readers are often presented conflicting interpretations of his life and work. Faulkner’s view of himself and his own family was mercurial, and it is widely acknowledged that Faulkner was an unreliable narrator of his own life. As a result, biographies of Faulkner echo and complicate the multitude of ways he portrayed himself, accepting that truth, if it exists, is subjective. Like his work, Faulkner’s own life, then, is not only open to different readings but welcomes them within the landscape of his oeuvre.

Este artefacto lírico y experiencial contiene el paisaje íntimo donde el ser se reconoce cuerpo y conciencia estrechamente unidos.

Un perro, corazón oculto del libro, trota sobre presencias y ausencias. La poesía como vía de descubrimiento, principio de incertidumbre que conlleva sorpresa y dicha.
