That Evening Sun

Quentin Compson narrates the story of his family’s African-American washerwoman, Nancy, who fears that her husband will murder her because she is pregnant with a white-man’s child. The events in the story are witnessed by a young Quentin and his two siblings, Caddy and Jason, who do not fully understand the adult world of race and class conflict that they are privy to. ---------- Also contained in: - [Britannica Library of Great American Writing: Volume II](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL26150106W) - [Collected Stories of William Faulkner](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL82851W/Collected_Stories_of_William_Faulkner) - [Faulkner Reader](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16245871W/The_Faulkner_Reader) - [Literature: Structure, sound, and sense: Fourth Edition](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL27052590W) - [Meistererzählungen](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL24157862W) - [Moderns and Contemporaries](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL1857074W) - [Portable Faulkner](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL82914W/The_Portable_Faulkner) - [Selected Short Stories of William Faulkner](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL82919W/Selected_Short_Stories_of_William_Faulkner) - [Shapes of Fiction](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL7307248W) - [Short Fiction: Classic and Contemporary: Second Edition](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL5367202W) - [Story and Its Writer: Compact Fourth Edition](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL26150265W) - [Story and Its Writer: Compact Eighth Edition](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16175326W) - [Story-Makers](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL18144558W) - [These 13](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL82907W/These_13) - [Trio: Fourth Edition](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL27053317W) - [Twice-Told Tales](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL5608086W/Twice-Told_Tales)
