"Yoknapatawpha: Faulkner's 'Little Postage Stamp of Native Soil'" presents a critical study of William Faulkner's fictional Mississippi county, tracing its geography, history, and social structure across his novels to argue that this invented landscape functions as a unified and deliberately constructed fictional world rather than a loose backdrop; Kerr examines how Faulkner's use of recurring characters, genealogies, and Southern history builds a cohesive mythology that anchors his broader literary achievement.
