William Faulkner archival material to be sold at auction

NEW YORK, Mar 29:  Letters, an unpublished short story and William Faulkner’s Nobel Prize medal could sell for more than 2 million dollars when archival materials of the author  are sold at auction in June, Sotheby’s said yesterday. Faulkner, whose books include “The Sound and the Fury” and “Sartoris,” is considered one of the most important American authors of the 20th century. A native of Mississippi, he set much of his work in the American South and often in the fictional Yoknapatawpha County.
