Книга - Soldiers' Pay

Soldiers' Pay tells the story of a wounded aviator who returns home to a small town in Georgia after the end of the First World War. His company includes a veteran of the war, as well as a widow whose husband was killed during the conflict. Upon his return, he's followed by a train of mishaps. That's the pay he receives for taking part in the war. The story was written shortly after Faulkner's return from WWI where he served as a soldier in the Royal Canadian Air Force.
