Description: 

Doom runs away to New Orleans in his youth but returns to his family's plantation in north Mississippi seven years later. Faulkner lived in New Orleans in 1925 and 1926, and the city provides the setting for a number of his non-Yoknapatawpha novels, including Mosquitoes, Pylon, and The Wild Palms.
