3.0 out of 5 stars Great stories, if incomplete, January 25, 1999
By A Customer
Of course the short stories here are excellent, but it is terrible that the origional Part Four of The Bear has been removed. Anyone who enjoys The Bear owes it to themselves to find a complete copy (it will have five parts) because Part Four is arguably the most important and meaningful portion of the entire story!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent stories hang together as a novel., July 27, 1998
By A Customer
I'm re-reading this book and really enjoying the stories (read it as tales in a novel). The book really puts different views to various people's ways of looking at the same stories and family histories. Read this and know why Faulkner is considered one of the best American novelists of all time. His people ring true, and two stories, "The Old People" and "The Bear", are just fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bear Complete, October 17, 2004
By R. Moench (Taft, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've occasionally used this collection as required reading for troubled and directionless young adult males. "The Race at Dawn" provides an excellent starting place for a discussion for the need to complete their education. The review from 1999 by "A READER" comments about "The Bear" being incomplete; all five sections are printed in the version collected in "Go Down Moses."
