Brooks pays tribute to the language and literature of the American South. He writes of the language’s unique syntax and its celebrated languorous rhythms; of the classical allusions and Addisonian locutions once favored by the gentry; and of the more earthbound eloquence, rooted in the dialect of England’s southern lowlands.
