书籍简介

福克纳的六部侦探小说以律师加文·史蒂文斯（福克纳小说中反复出现的角色）为主角，调查暴力犯罪。 这个新修复的版本按照福克纳的意图呈现了这些故事。

《马弃兵》出版于 1949 年，收录了 1930 年代和 1940 年代写的 6 个故事，重点讲述了福克纳虚构的密西西比州约克纳帕塔法县的县检察官加文·史蒂文斯 (Gavin Stevens) 的刑事调查，福克纳的许多知名小说都以该县为背景。

这些故事出现在杂志上，编辑们在出版之前对福克纳的手稿进行了重大修改。 其中一些变化似乎是为了使故事符合流行的风格，一些是为了简洁或得体，还有一些是为了消除福克纳故事中的地域性“南方特色”。 学者约翰·杜瓦尔 (John N. Duvall) 发现了经过编辑的打字稿，这些打字稿揭示了删除和更改的内容，使他能够将这六个故事恢复到原来的福克纳式的辉煌。

Faulkner's six dectective stories feature attorney Gavin Stevens, a recurring character from Faulkner's novels, as he investigates violent crimes. This newly restored edition presents the stories the way Faulkner intended them.

Published in 1949, Knight's Gambit is a collection of six stories written in the 1930s and 1940s that focus on the criminal investigations of Gavin Stevens, the county attorney of Faulkner's fictional Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi, where so many of his famous novels are set.

These stories appeared in magazines, where editors made substantial changes to Faulkner's manuscripts before publishing them. Some of these changes seem to have been intended to make the stories conform to prevailing styles, some were made for concision or propriety, and some to remove the regional "Southernness" of Faulkner's tales. Scholar John N. Duvall uncovered edited typescripts that revealed the deletions and changes and allowed him to restore these six stories to their original Faulknerian glory.
