DELTA WEDDING

The Mississippi Delta of the early '20's sets a beautiful stage for Eudora Welty's novel of life and manners in the Fairchild family. Welty's eloquent prose captures every visual aspect of the Fairchilds' world. Sally Darling articulates each speech pattern and draws the characters and scenes even more completely with her voice. Her cadence is perfect and elicits the atmosphere of heat and langour with finesse. Each character is carefully drawn by the exceptional combination of voice and text. This title adds a masterpiece to performance literature and amplifies the fine collection of Southern literature from Recorded Books this season. R.F.W.
