Soldiers' Pay - MP3 CD Audiobook in security sleeve

Description: Soldiers' Pay Soldiers' Pay William Faulkner William Faulkner's novel Soldiers' Pay (1926) is a poignant exploration of the effects of war on individuals and society. The story is set in the aftermath of World War I and revolves around the return of Lieutenant Donald Mahon, a severely wounded soldier, to his hometown in Mississippi. Mahon is left physically and emotionally scarred, embodying the trauma and disillusionment experienced by many veterans. The novel unfolds through the perspectives of various characters who intersect with Mahon’s life. These include his fiancée, who struggles with her own conflicted emotions and societal expectations, and the residents of the town, who grapple with their perceptions of heroism and sacrifice. The narrative captures the stark contrast between Mahon's heroic image and the harsh reality of his condition. Faulkner's portrayal of Mahon's plight serves as a critique of the glorification of war and the shallow, often indifferent responses of society toward returning soldiers. The novel's exploration of personal and communal disintegration reflects Faulkner's broader themes of moral decay and existential despair. Through its richly textured narrative and complex characterizations, Soldiers' Pay offers a compelling examination of the personal costs of conflict and the often-painful journey of reintegration into civilian life.
