A handsome copy of the signed limited edition of Faulkner's sixth novel, comprising two interweaving narratives set in his fictionalized Yoknapatawpha County, in Mississippi. Over Faulkner's objections, Random House published the work with the above title, later editions used Faulkner's preferred title, If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem.
