A landmark in American fiction, Light in August explores Faulkner's central theme: the nature of evil. Joe Christmas - a man doomed, deracinated and alone - wanders the Deep South in search of an identity, and a place in society. After killing his perverted God-fearing lover, it becomes inevitable that he is pursued by a lynch-hungry mob. Yet after the sacrifice, there is new life, a determined ray of light in Faulkner's complex and tragic world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45464016584925,"sku":"9781784878580","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781784878580.jpg?v=1720076262","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781784878580","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
