DELTA WEDDING is a dynamic portrait of a large family in the Mississippi Delta by one of America's greatest writers. The Fairchild clan have gathered for the summer wedding of Dabney to the family's overseer, Troy Flavin. In the build up to the big day tensions and doubts inevitably rise to the surface. Told through multiple voices, Welty's layered narrative brilliantly depicts the chaotic melee of an overflowing house.
