{"product_id":"books-three-famous-short-novels-by-william-faulkner","title":"THREE FAMOUS SHORT NOVELS","description":"\"You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.\" -William Faulkner\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e These short works offer three different approaches to Faulkner, each representative of his work as a whole. \u003ci\u003eSpotted Horses\u003c\/i\u003e is a hilarious account of a horse auction, and pits the \"cold practicality\" of women against the boyish folly of men. \u003ci\u003eOld Man\u003c\/i\u003e is something of an adventure story. When a flood ravages the countryside of the lower Mississippi, a convict finds himself adrift with a pregnant woman. And \u003ci\u003eThe Bear\u003c\/i\u003e, perhaps his best known shorter work, is the story of a boy's coming to terms wit the adult world. By learning how to hunt, the boy is taught the real meaning of pride, humility, and courage.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53768515584273,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780307946751.jpg?v=1783945741","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-three-famous-short-novels-by-william-faulkner","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
