"People say they live in Delux," Rose complained. "There is nothing delux about this place no matter how you spell it. It's Delow, Cecile McRae. Low, low, low. And, Delow is the dumbest place on earth." D'Leaux, Mississippi is a novel of manners and memory. Cecil McRae Britton recounts her life in Mounds County, Mississippi- a mix of trauma and misadventure. Racism, murder, and secrets swirl around the curious, observant Cecil McRae as she navigates life in the rural South. Can horrific events of family history be reconciled, can healing follow unforgotten violence, and casual slights be met with kindness? How can a person find happiness in such a complex, unyielding place? Watching Cecil McRae do just that is not only a pleasure but a delight. She is exasperating, commanding, and a pure joy!.
