Wikipedia - "Flags in the Dust is a novel by the American author William Faulkner, completed in 1927.

In the autumn or winter of 1926, William Faulkner, twenty-nine, began work on the first of his novels about Yoknapatawpha County.

A year later, on September 29, 1927, the new novel was completed. It was 596 pages long in transcript, and he called it Flags in the Dust. ..."
