Santuario es la obra que catapultó a William Faulkner a la fama. Esta escalofriante historia destaca por su fuerza y la originalidad del autor. Lee Goodwin es acusado de asesinato en una destilería ilegal, donde conviven Ruby, una mujer leal a Lee, y Popeye, un gánster sádico marcado por una infancia difícil. El abogado Horace Benbow se esfuerza por defender a Goodwin, buscando que se le juzgue por sus actos y no por prejuicios. Para ello, necesita la ayuda de Temple Drake, una joven atraída por el peligro, quien ha desaparecido. La novela explora temas de injusticia, moralidad y la complejidad de la naturaleza humana en el contexto del sur de Estados Unidos.
