Soldiers' Pay

Meer over het boek

Set in the aftermath of the First World War, the story follows a group of soldiers traveling by train across the United States. Among them is a severely scarred, blind, and nearly mute soldier whose condition prompts compassionate civilian travelers to accompany him back to Georgia. There, his family believes him dead, and his fiancée has grown weary of waiting. Faulkner's debut novel poignantly explores the devastating impact of war on individuals and their relationships.
