<p><b>The unforgettable tale of an American soldier's return home from WWI by the Nobel Prize–winning author of <br/> <i>The Sound and the Fury</i>.</b></p><p>Lt. Donald Mahon served as a fighter pilot in the Great War. After suffering a terrible head injury, he was released from the hospital with lost memories and a disfiguring scar. Now, back in America, he makes his way home to Georgia with the help of a fellow veteran and a young war widow. But as his health continues to decline, what home will be left for him?</p> First published in 1926, William Faulkner's debut novel explores the horrors of World War I, the interior lives of veterans, and the fickle nature of small-town American life. It "tells an old story—as old as the Greeks—and older—as old as war and its folly" (<br/> <i>The New York Times</i>).
