A Gathering of Evidence: Essays on William Faulkner's Intruder in the Dust

by Patrick Samway

This book gathers together twelve recent and classic essays on Faulkner's Intruder in the Dust, which he termed a mystery-murder whose theme concerns a relationship between Negro and white, specifically or rather the premise being that the white people in the south, before the North or the govt. or anyone else, owe and must pay a responsibility to the Negro. These essays provide a rich set of resources to teachers who wish to assign this text, as well as to provide food for thought and discussion to individual readers and scholars of Faulkner.
