A Fable is a 1954 novel written by the American author William Faulkner. He spent more than a decade and tremendous effort on it, and aspired for it to be "the best work of my life and maybe of my time".[2]
It won the Pulitzer Prize[3] and the National Book Award.[4] Historically, it can be seen as a precursor to Joseph Heller's Catch-22.
