Summary

"Set in 1923, Delta Wedding tells the story of the Fairchilds, a big and clamorous family, who live on a plantation in the Mississippi delta. They are in the midst of planning their daughter's wedding when a nine-year-old relative, Laura McRaven, whose mother has just died, comes to visit. Drama leads to drama, revelation to revelation, in a novel that is "nothing short of wonderful" (The New Yorker). The result is a sometimes-riotous view of a Southern family, and the parentless child who learns to become one of them"--, Provided by publisher
