Knight's Gambit

Více o knize

Focusing on the criminal investigations led by Gavin Stevens, Yoknapatawpha's county attorney, this collection of six stories explores themes of justice versus law. Originally published in 1949, the first edition suffered from editorial inconsistencies and substantial cuts made by magazine editors. John N. Duvall's new edition restores over four thousand words using previously unknown typescripts, allowing for a more authentic reading experience. Duvall's introduction also examines the impact of detective fiction on Faulkner's readership and career.
