Dean Faulkner Wells offers a unique and personal view into the private world of her uncle, William Faulkner. Her father, William’s younger brother Dean, was killed in a plane crash months before Wells was born. As a child, she did not recognize the importance of the man who undertook raising her. To his niece, the writer was simply known as Pappy .
Published just before her death at 75, Dean Faulkner Wells recounts the story of the Faulkners of Mississippi, whose legacy includes pioneers, war veterans, three never-convicted murderers, the founding president of a bank, an FBI agent, and a Nobel Prize winner, one of America’s most important American novelists of the twentieth century.
