Been Down So Long It Looks<br />

Like Up to Me<br />

Introduction by Thomas Pynchon<br />

In this classic novel of the 1960s—an<br />

unerring, corrosively comic depiction of<br />

a campus in revolt—Fariña evokes the<br />

period as precisely, wittily, and poignantly<br />

as F. Scott Fitzgerald captured the Jazz<br />

Age.<br />

Young Lonigan<br />

Introduction by Ann Douglas<br />

The first book of the Studs Lonigan trilogy<br />

opens on the young hero, not yet fifteen,<br />

leaving behind the jailhouse rigors of St.<br />

Patrick’s school and embarking on the<br />

adventure of his life. A brilliant variant<br />

of the stream-of-consciousness novel<br />

pioneered by Joyce and Woolf, this tale of<br />

brazen boyhood remains one of the great<br />

American novels of the twentieth century.<br />

The Portable Faulkner<br />

Edited with an Introduction by<br />

Malcolm Cowley<br />

In prose of biblical grandeur and feverish<br />

intensity, William Faulkner reconstructed<br />

the history of the American South as<br />

a tragic legend of courage and cruelty,<br />

gallantry and greed, futile nobility<br />

and obscene crimes. This essential<br />

collection offers a panorama of life in<br />

Yoknapatawpha County by means of<br />

stories and episodes from ten of Faulkner’s<br />

books, including “The Bear,” “Spotted<br />

Horses,” and “Old Man”; as well as the<br />

Nobel Prize Address, a chronology of the<br />

Compsons, and a unique map surveyed by<br />

Faulkner himself.<br />

“The job is splendid. . . . By god, i didn’t know<br />

i had succeeded.” —william faulkner
