The two young men who received guidance and help from Anderson later entered the palace of literature with their own works and became well known to the world. ?
The First Young Man published his first novel in 1926, earning himself widespread acclaim.The name of the work is "The Sun Also Rises", and the young man is Hemingway. ?
The second young man wrote a nationally famous masterpiece "The Sound and the Fury" a few years after Anderson helped him, and his name was Faulkner. ?
