Go, Moses (selected Translations of Famous Works)
About This Novel
"Go, Moses" is one of Faulkner's most famous works and an important part of the "Yoknapatawpha Lineage". McCaslin, the manor owner of the southern United States, had a daughter with a slave girl, and later gave birth to a son Tyrell with this daughter. Tyrell later married Tanney, a slave girl of another manor owner, Bushchamp, and their children all bear the surname Bushchamp. McCaslin's granddaughter married Edmonds. The whole book is about the complex relationship between the descendants of these three surnames. The most colorful character is McCaslin's grandson Isaac. He participated in bear hunting activities since he was a child under the leadership of black hunters. When he grew up, he saw through the abnormal relationship between white people and black slaves. He voluntarily gave up his family property and went to the town to make a living as a carpenter. The whole book consists of two novellas and five short stories. Each part is relatively independent and integrated into a complete picture.
