Along with dialogue there is dialect. I borrowed a copy of the stories of Brer Rabbit by Joel C. Harris from the library once and found it almost unreadable. A little dialect may not have been a problem but it was so thick that I couldn't read a single sentence through and understand what the characters were talking about. It may have been different at the time Mr. Harris wrote the book, I don't know, but for me it made it impossible to really enter the world of the story.
