William: In 19 18, he travels north for the first time and goes to yale with his boody stone. He never saw active service, though apparently he may have told some false war stories. According to this copy of as i lay dying, his first novel was writin 19 25. I want to shout ou that he lived for period of time at six 24 pirates alley in new orleans. There's a bookstore now called faulkner house books. You and i have been there.
