William Faulkner came into this would on September 25, 1897 and left the world of the living on July 6, 1962. A beloved author whose impact upon the literary world was unmatched, a pure hearted novelist. His written works will never be forgotten as they have seared their words into our hearts and minds. A man who transformed society’s views of the past relating to race, social class, and genders under nineteenth century supremacy. Above all, Faulkner was never afraid to raise his voice “for honesty, truth, and compassion against injustice, lying, and greed.” (William Faulkner Quotes)
