In this book, written with brilliance and charm, we see Wilson, in bright, remembered flashes, through the eyes of his young sister-in-law. Here, also, is the Southern background--Illyria, a composite of several small Southern towns slowly reviving after the war, where lived the Axson family and Aunt Louisa, the staunch Puritan.
