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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eFried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"A real novel and a good one [from] the busy brain of a born storyteller.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"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.\"\u003cb\u003e--Harper Lee\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"This whole literary enterprise shines with honesty, gallantry, and love of perfect details that might otherwise be forgotten.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Funny and macabre.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Courageous and wise.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eHouston Chronicle\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fannie Flagg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.54w x 0.73d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780449911358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Book Sense Book of the Year Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Book Sense Book of the Year Award - Honor Book","brand":"Random House Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44348889104521,"sku":"9780449911358","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_9b73891f-f8cc-4fd0-bebf-5cb380eda34c.jpg?v=1750802100","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/fried-green-tomatoes-at-the-whistle-stop-cafe-9780449911358","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
