Reply From Linda E. Neville  10/1/2023
Thank you for your post Karen Curlee!
My email is nevilleland19@yahoo.com
Our Presenters for this Tuesday are as follows:
Chapter 5: Rick
Chapter 6: Donna
Chapter 7: Karen
Chapter 8: Judith
Chapter 9: Linda

Also, there is a second Padlet: Resources for Light in August where I will be moving posts so that the first page doesn't get too busy. In addition, if you go to the far right side of your screen, you will see an arrow that makes a slide show and each column will come up separately to view. A small arrow on that page will help you scroll down the page to see everything.

Linda

It would be great to have an email address for our teacher here in the padlet and perhaps an overview of who is covering what chapters each week. (Not sure if I agreed to 5 or 6?)

All the great writers of the American South have an incredible sense of place. In their works, the South is more than just a setting, but is a character of its own. William Faulkner's masterpieces are no exception: they are filled with the sights, smells and sounds of the South, and the distinctive frame of mind of its people. Faulkner's richly imagined Yoknapatawpha County, a fictionalized version of his own Mississippi homeland, is inhabited by a cast of vivid and unforgettable characters that Faulkner drew from his own family's centuries-long history in the American South.

Faulkner, a bona fide Southern gentleman who shunned the spotlight, was a unique character himself, often amusing those around him with his idiosyncratic ways. Here are a few fun facts to provide a new perspective on this astonishing literary genius:

1. Faulkner declined a dinner invitation from First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, saying, "That's a long way to go just to eat." (" What the Great Ate," Jacob and Jacob)

2. He supported himself as a postmaster at the University of Mississippi, but was fired for reading on the job.

3. Faulkner never graduated from high school or earned a college degree, yet he won the Nobel Prize for Literature, two Pulitzer prizes and the National Book Award, twice.

4. A notorious ladies' man, Faulkner's affair with the young writer, Joan Williams, from 1949-53, is the subject of her 1971 novel, The Wintering. (" One Matchless Time: A Life of William Faulkner," Jay Parini)

5. He wrote two volumes of poetry: The Marble Faun (1924), which is named after a Nathanial Hawthorne novel, and " A Green Bough" (1933), as well as a short story collection of crime-fiction called " Knight's Gambit" (1949).
