Book Reviews of William Faulkner: Novels, 1957-1962: The Town / The Mansion / The Reivers (Library of America)

Book Review: three good novels in one book
Summary: 5 Stars

This volume of Faulkner's novels is a very good bargain. Two of the books The Town and The Mansion are part of the Snopes family trilogy. The Hamlet being the first novel. The three together tell the story of a family's grasping for wealth and power by any means and the destruction of the family by one of its own members.
The third vilume, The Reivers is a funny and entertaining story of young boys on an adventure that begins with stealing a car and go to Memphis. and find out the seamy side of life.
