For all the family at The Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Conferences and especially for Evans and Betty
"Children of the Dark House" is a heavily revised and expanded essay combining three essays in which I initially began exploring Oedipal themes in the early years of Faulkner's greatness: "'The Dungeon Was Mother Herself': William Faulkner: 1927-193 ," "The Space Between Sanctuary," and "Law in Faulkner's Sanctuary." These three, along with ''Trying Not to Say: A Primer on the Language of The Sound and the Fury," "Man in the Middle," "Woman and the Feminine in AFable," and "Faulkner at Midcentury," were originally published as listed in the Works Cited list.
I thank the University of Michigan Press for permission to reprint "Trying Not to Say" and the Mississippi College Law Review for permission to reprint "Law in Faulkner's Sanctuary." "The Artist as Cuckold" was originally delivered as a lecture at the 1995 Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha conference, and will be published in Kartiganer and Abadie, ed., Faulkner and Gender. Jackson: UP of Mississippi, due 1996. I thank Ann Abadie and Donald Kartiganer for permission to publish it here. "Ratliff's Buggies," published here for the first time, will be included in Haunted Bodies: Gender and Southern Texts, edited by Susan V. Donaldson and Anne Goodwyn Jones. Charlottesville: UP of Virginia, due 1996. I thank the editors for permission to publish here.

Introduction: Pleasure of the Texts
I don't know anything about inspiration because I don 't know what inspiration isI've heard about it, but I never saw it. LG248
I received a copy of the printed book and I found that I didn't even want to see what kind of jacket Smith had put on it. I seemed to have a vision of it and the other ones subsequent to The Sound and the Fury ranked in order upon a shelf while I looked at the titled backs of them with a flagging attention which was almost distaste, and upon which each succeeding title registered less and less, until at last Attention itself seemed to say, Thank God I shall never need to open any one of them again. "Introduction" 708
The essays in this collection derive from an abiding interest in the intense reciprocities between William Faulkner's life and his work, between his lived and his imaginative lives. Most of them explore his engagement with his psychic life, the last two his more public social and political selves. The first concerns the specific site of that reciprocity, the manuscript and typescript pages on to which he translated, transmuted, one life into the otherthrough what conscious or unconscious processes of refraction, repression, or sheer exploitation we are only now beginning to understand.
