Other new features include further reading lists for Faulkner's major novels and short stories as well as a detailed chronology of one of Faulkner's greatest and most complicated works, ""As I Lay Dying"". This title covers such topics as: descriptions of characters in Faulkner's fiction, such as Benjy and Quentin from ""The Sound and the Fury""; details about Faulkner's family, friends, colleagues, and critics; real and fictional places important to Faulkner's life and literary development, from Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi to Hollywood; interviews and speeches given by Faulkner; and, ideas and events that influenced his life and works, including slavery, the Civil War, World War I, and civil rights.
