Can anyone post that one anecdote about faulkner and hemingway where faulkner goes into this gorgeous florid lament for an antebellum soldier, on his way home, jumping in front of a train, sorrowful about the fall of the South's dignity, and then hemingway merely goes "some kid killed himself here once"?

Oh, and Hemingway/Faulkner discussion thread I guess.

>In January 1936, William Faulkner had just completed his latest novel and begun his latest drinking binge. He handed the new manuscript to a friend and said, "I want you to read this. ... I think it's the best novel yet written by an American."

Read Faulkner. You’re not reaching your full potential.

Faulkner is overrated. Refute this. Pro tip: You can't.
