With such novels as “The sound and the fury” and “Light in August”, William Faulkner earned himself a reputation as the literary voice of the Southern States and the father of modern American literature. Using storytelling techniques like inner monologues and interwoven subplots. Faulkner turned the way of life of the people of these regions into highly acclaimed masterpieces of modern literature. When William Faulkner was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950, he donated the money to sponsor young writers – and to this day, the PEN/Faulkner Award, which honours America’s most talented authors, pays tribute to this gesture.
The blackish-brown sheen of the mother-of-pearl-like resin finish of the William Faulkner Limited Edition creates a fascinating contrast to the platinum-plated body of the pen. The elegant design of the clip symbolises the Art Deco epoch of the 1920s, when William Faulkner first began writing his novels. A biplane engraved on the platinised, 18-carat gold nib reflects Faulkner’s passion for aviation.
