| Abstract | ||||
| This study reveals a linguistic stylistic analysis for Paul Beatty’s novel The Sellout through using Leech’s linguistic checklist. The study embodies two chief goals; a linguistic goal that depends on applying Leech’s Linguistic checklist on the entire novel by utilizing its different categories and a literary aim that relies on exposing the issue of racial segregation in the American society between the Whites and the Blacks. The proficiency in a writing style that Beatty displays in his novel is embodied evidently via this study. | ||||
