Description:
Nancy's cabin appears only once in Faulkner's fiction. In "That Evening Sun" it is down the lane that runs from the back of the Compson house, across a ditch and on the other side of a fence that Nancy and the Compson children stoop down to pass. It is protected by a door with a wooden bar and warmed by a small hearth, before which a chair sits. It has a notable smell, at times mysterious and other times coming from the wick of a globular lamp. There is a table that on one occasion held a bloody hog bone.
