Papers of William Faulkner [manuscript], 1931-1948.

The papers contain a typed manuscript of "Idyll in the desert" inscribed to Bennett Cerf and an autograph manuscript of an introduction to the Modern Library edition of "Sanctuary." Letters of Faulkner to Cerf discuss the Modern Library series, books sent by Cerf, a new pipe and the movie version of "Intruder in the dust." Also include a Christmas card from the Faulkners, a check from Cerf to Faulkner, Faulkner's broadside "to the voters of Oxford," and two articles "The school of cruelty" by Henry Seidel Canby and "The book of the day," by Laurence Stallings both chiefly regarding "Sanctuary".
