Forensic Fictions

The Lawyer Figure in Faulkner

Beschreibung

The first book-length critical study of Faulkner's fictional depictions of the legal vocation and the practice of law. Examining Faulkner's lawyer characters in light of the southern storytelling tradition, Jay Watson argues that the forensic competence of the Faulknerian lawyer is a direct function of his skill as a raconteur.
