- The Reivers, published in 1962, is the last novel by the American author William Faulkner. The bestselling novel was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1963. Faulkner previously won this award for his book A Fable, making him one of only three authors to be awarded it more than once. Unlike many of his earlier works, it is a straightforward narration and eschews the complicated literary techniques of his greatest works. It is a picaresque novel, and as such may seem uncharacteristically lighthearted given its subject matter. For these reasons, The Reivers is often ignored by Faulkner scholars or dismissed as a lesser work. He previously had referred to writing a "Golden Book of Yoknapatawpha County" with which he would finish his literary career. It is likely that The Reivers was meant to be this "Golden Book". The Reivers was adapted into a 1969 film directed by Mark Rydell and starring Steve McQueen as Boon Hogganbeck.
- Les Larrons (en anglais The Reivers), paru en 1962, est le dernier roman de William Faulkner. Il a obtenu le Prix Pulitzer pour une œuvre de fiction en 1963. Faulkner avait déjà obtenu ce prix en 1955 pour Parabole (A Fable), ce qui en fait un des deux seuls auteurs à avoir été récompensé plus d'une fois. À la différence de plusieurs de ses œuvres antérieures, ce roman est direct et ne recourt pas à des techniques littéraires compliquées. Il est également gai. C'est pourquoi Les Larrons est souvent ignoré par les exégètes de Faulkner ou considéré comme une œuvre mineure. Faulkner avait déclaré vouloir finir sa carrière littéraire en écrivant le livre d'or du comté de Yoknapatawpha. Il est probable que Les larrons constitue ce « livre d'or. »
