Intruder in the Dust
William Faulkner, 1948
FAULKNER, William (1897-1962). Intruder in the Dust. New York: Random House, 1948.

Fine first edition of Faulkner’s exploration of the South’s racial problems through the lens of a murder mystery. It tells the story of Lucas Beauchamp, an aging Black man wrongfully accused of a white man's murder. Originally conceived as a short story, the work grew into a novel and was made into a motion picture which previewed the following year. A Haycraft-Queen Cornerstone; Peterson A26.2.

Octavo. Original cloth; pictorial dust jacket by E. McKnight Kauffer (price-clipped, mild toning to rear panel); custom box.
