Fine/Fine. 159pp, profusely illustrated in color.

Of the many great biographies of Faulkner, Faulkner's Mississippi is the only portrait of the writer by another writer, touching on the fears, the frailties, and the courage of a man who chose to live in a land that loved and reviled him all in the same breath". A most handsome example of what is also one of the photographer's most haunting books additionally SIGNED "William Eggleston" in black ink on the title page.
