This is a movie of my trip to William Faulkner's Home, called Rowan Oak. In Oxford, Mississippi, it is operated and cared for by Ole Miss. Almost everything is original, as the house has only been owned by William Faulkner's wife and daughter since his death. It is an excellent tour, one I strongly suggest to anyone nearby or interested in Faulkner's work.

  • my boyfriend's grandma lives in his childhood home in oxford. :) its really nice and very old-fashioned.

  • I feel the peace of the Lord

  • I have only JUST discovered Faulkner's work for myself. I am reading "Light in August" and reveling in the beauty of it.

    I am so grateful for your tour of his home. It's gorgeous. Made my day seeing it.

    Thanks for sharing this.

  • very nice pictures, thank you for not commenting,

  • Nice touch that you didn't try to narrate it. Just let the images (and that wonderful chirping southern bird in the background) tell the story. I can almost feel the Mississippi heat and humidity. Thanks for posting this!

  • Thank you for posting this.

    I´m a great Faulkner-Fan and this is in some way the birthplace of some of the greatest books ever written.

    I really want to see it myself!

  • William Faulkner, Born in New Albany, Mississippi. 1897-1962

  • Thank you very much. I have always wanted to visit this place. Now I know what it looks like. Great job of camera work.

  • Thank you so much for this footage. I'm studying Faulkner as one of my finals papers at university. Its great to have this insight which I will probably never get to live for myself. You should have spent more time on the writings for 'A Fable' on the wall, though!

  • Excellent. Thank you.
