Struggles Over the Word: Race and Religion in O'Connor, Faulkner, Hurston, and Wright (2001) by Timothy P. Caron
This literary critical study counters the usual tendency to segregate Southern literature from African American literary studies. Noting that William Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor are classified as Southern writers, whereas Zora Neale Hurston and Richard Wright are considered black authors, Timothy P. Caron argues for "an integrated study of the South's literary culture." He shows that the interaction of Southern religion and race binds these four writers together. Caron broadens our understanding of Southern literature to include both white and African American voices.

The Spooky Art: Thoughts on Writing (2003) by Norman Mailer
Throughout, Mailer ties in examples from his own career, and reflects on the works of his fellow writers, living and dead -- Ernest Hemingway, Herman Melville, Joan Didion, John Updike, Mark Twain, Samuel Beckett, Saul Bellow, William Faulkner, William Styron, and a host of others. In The Spooky Art, Mailer captures the unique untold suffering and exhilaration of the novelist’s daily life and, while plotting a clear path for other writers to follow, maintains reverence for the underlying mystery and power of the art.
