FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AT THE WHISTLE STOP CAFE -...

Folksy and fresh  endearing and affecting  Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is a
now-classic novel about two women: Evelyn  who's in the sad slump of middle age  and
gray-headed Mrs. Threadgoode  who's telling her life story. Her tale includes two more
women-the irrepressibly daredevilish tomboy Idgie and her friend Ruth-who back in the thirties
ran a little place in Whistle Stop  Alabama  offering good coffee  southern barbecue  and all
kinds of love and laughter-even an occasional murder. And as the past unfolds  the present will
never be quite the same again. Praise for Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe A real
novel and a good one [from] the busy brain of a born storyteller.-The New York Times Happily
for us  Fannie Flagg has preserved [the Threadgoodes] in a richly comic  poignant narrative
that records the exuberance of their lives  the sadness of their departure.-Harper Lee This
whole literary enterprise shines with honesty  gallantry  and love of perfect details that
might otherwise be forgotten.-Los Angeles Times Funny and macabre.-The Washington Post
Courageous and wise.-Houston Chronicle
