Download or read book The Unvanquished William Faulkner written by William Faulkner and published by . This book was released on 1938 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unvanquished is a 1938 novel by the American author William Faulkner, set in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County. It tells the story of the Sartoris family, who first appeared in the novel Sartoris (or Flags in the Dust). The Unvanquished takes place before that story, and is set during the American Civil War. Principal characters are Bayard Sartoris, John Sartoris (Marse John, Father), Granny, Ringo (Morengo), Ab Snopes, Cousin Drusilla, Aunt Jenny, Louvinia, and the lieutenant (a Yankee soldier). Although The Unvanquished was first published as a whole in 1938, it consists of seven short stories which were originally published separately in The Saturday Evening Post, except where noted: "Ambuscade" (September 29, 1934) "Retreat" (October 13, 1934) "Raid" (November 3, 1934) "The Unvanquished" (namesake for the novel, in which it is titled "Riposte in Tertio") (November 14, 1936) "Vendée" (December 5, 1936) "Drusilla" (titled "Skirmish at Sartoris" in the novel), published in Scribner's (April 1935) "An Odor of Verbena" (never published prior to the release of the novel ) The Unvanquished is told in seven episodes-sometimes immediately following one another, other times separated by months or years-spanning the years 1862 to 1873. The book begins with Bayard Sartoris and his slave friend Ringo playing in the dirt on the Sartoris plantation. A slave named Loosh smugly interrupts their game, hinting that Union armies have entered northeastern Mississippi, near their town of Jefferson. The boys do not fully understand, but when Bayard's father, Colonel John Sartoris, returns home from the front that day, they overhear him telling Granny Millard that Vicksburg has fallen. Loosh obviously knows about the defeat, and Bayard decides he and Ringo will keep watch over Loosh. Several days into the watch, the boys spot a Yankee soldier on horseback riding up the road. The boys grab a musket off the wall and shoot at the soldier, then run into the house as a fist pounds on the front door. Granny hides them under her billowing skirts and insists to the angry Union sergeant that there are no children present. Colonel Dick, a Yankee officer, calls off the search but makes it clear that he does so out of pity, not because he believes Granny. Afterward, the boys learn they only hit the horse, not the rider.
