β¦ Synopsis
Roger Shumann, a 1920s barnstorming pilot, parachuters Laverne and Jack, and their mechanic, Jiggs, live fast and hard, without thought to the consequences their actions have on their fellow pilots and their families. Rumours of their incest and rampant alcoholism attract the attention of a local newspaperman-- known only as The Reporter-- who is pulled into the their circle and forced to confront the tragic realisation that he, too, has moved beyond the constraints of human morality.
One of the few novels by William Faulkner to take place outside of fictional Yoknapatawpha County, Pylon was originally published in 1935, and is now regarded as an important meditation on the loss of human values in the face of modernity.
