Sobre este artículo
"This sequel to Faulkner's most sensational novel Sanctuary was written twenty years later but takes up the story of Temple Drake eight years after the events of its prequel. Temple is now married to Gowan Stevens. And the book begins as the death sentence is pronounced on the nurse Nancy for the murder of Temple and Gowan's child. Told partly in prose and partly in dramatic form, Requiem for a Nun is a haunting exploration of the impact of the past on the present" (Random House). Adapted by Camus for the French stage, this novel contains one of Faulkner's most famous lines: "The past is never dead. It's not even past." Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket.
Sinopsis
Requiem for a Nun is a book written by William Faulkner in 1951. Like many of Faulkner's works, Requiem experiments with narrative technique—the book is part novel, part play. The protagonist is Temple Drake, a character introduced as a college student in Sanctuary, one of Faulkner's early novels. In Requiem Temple, now married with a child, must learn to deal with her violent, turbulent past as related in Sanctuary.
