Faulkner spent his entire career romanticizing rural white southerners, trying to potray them as something better than the racist traitors they were.
Leonard takes on the same task, but with a more honest, clear eyed portrayal of his subject. As the “poet laureate of wild assholes with guns”, Leonard understands his subjects and his audience better than Faulkner ever did.
