William Faulkner’s lectures digitized and now online

From the NPR site:

In the late 1950s, English students at the University of Virginia got the opportunity that most American literature scholars would kill for — to speak with William Faulkner.

Faulkner spent two years as the writer-in-residence at UVA, where he gave lectures and readings and took questions from students. The lectures were recorded on reel-to-reel tapes, which have now been digitized and published online.

Personally, I agree with Stephan Pastis, the cartoonist, in the article that we republished: The Sound of My Fury Toward Overrated Authors Who Confuse Me by Stephan Pastis
