Faulkner's work has been examined by many critics


from a wide variety of critical perspectives,
including his position on slavery in the South and
his view that desegregation was not an idea to be
forced, arguing desegregation should "go slow" so
as not to upend the southern way of life. The
essayist and novelist James Baldwin was highly
critical of his views around integration.

The New Critics became interested in Faulkner's


work, with Cleanth Brooks writing The
Yoknapatawpha Country and Michael Millgate
writing The Achievement of William Faulkner.
Since then, critics have looked at Faulkner's work
using other approaches, such as feminist and
psychoanalytic methods.

Faulkner's works have been placed within the


literary traditions of modernism and the
Southern Renaissance.

According to critic and translator Valerie Miles,


Faulkner's influence on Latin American fiction is
considerable, with fictional worlds created by
Gabriel García Márquez (Macondo) and Juan
Carlos Onetti (Santa Maria) being "very much in
the vein of" Yoknapatawpha: "Carlos Fuentes's
The Death of Artemio Cruz wouldn't exist if not
for As I Lay Dying".Fuentes himself cited Faulkner
as one of the most important writers to him.

The works of William Faulkner are a clear influence


on the French novelist Claude Simon,and the
Portuguese novelist António Lobo Antunes.

After his death, Estelle and their daughter, Jill, lived


at Rowan Oak until Estelle's death in 1972. The
property was sold to the University of Mississippi
that same year. The house and furnishings are
maintained much as they were in Faulkner's day.

Faulkner's scribblings are preserved on the wall,


including the day-by-day outline covering a week
he wrote on the walls of his small study to help
him keep track of the plot twists in his novel, A
Fable.

Some of Faulkner's works have been adapted into


films such as James Franco's As I Lay Dying
(2013). They have received a polarized response,
with may critics contending that Faulkner's
works are "unfilmable".

Awards
Faulkner was awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize in
Literature for "his powerful and artistically
unique contribution to the modern American
novel".[61] It was awarded at the following year's
banquet along with the 1950 Prize to Bertrand
Russell.

Faulkner detested the fame and glory that resulted


from his recognition. His aversion was so great
that his 17-year-old daughter learned of the
Nobel Prize only when she was called to the
principal's office during the school day.

He donated part of his Nobel money "to establish a


fund to support and encourage new fiction
writers", eventually resulting in the
PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction, and donated
another part to a local Oxford bank, establishing a
scholarship fund to help educate African-
American teachers at Rust College in nearby Holly
Springs, Mississippi. The government of France
made Faulkner a Chevalier de la Légion
d'honneur in 1951.

Faulkner was awarded two Pulitzer Prizes for what


are considered "minor" novels: his 1954 novel A
Fable, which took the Pulitzer in 1955, and the
1962 novel, The Reivers, which was
posthumously awarded the Pulitzer in 1963.

(The award for A Fable was a controversial political


choice. The jury had selected Milton Lott's The
Last Hunt for the prize, but Pulitzer Prize
Administrator Professor John Hohenberg
convinced the Pulitzer board that Faulkner was
long overdue for the award, despite A Fable being
a lesser work of his, and the board overrode the
jury's selection, much to the disgust of its
members.)

He also won the U.S. National Book Award twice, for


Collected Stories in 1951 and A Fable in 1955.

In 1946 he was one of three finalists for the first


Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine Award and placed
second to Rhea Galati.
