“Southern Fiction,” a new series by the photographer Tema Stauffer, explores the tension between how the American South looks in the mind and how it looks in the world.

It is this kind of heftier noun which Tema Stauffer takes for her subject in “Southern Fiction,” a visual survey of the settings that shaped the imaginations of some of the last century’s most significant Southern writers.
