Amazon Editorial Review

Folksy and fresh, endearing and affecting, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is the now-classic novel of two women in the 1980s; of gray-headed Mrs. Threadgoode telling her life story to Evelyn, who is in the sad slump of middle age. The tale she tells is also of two women--of the irrepressibly daredevilish tomboy Idgie and her friend Ruth--who back in the thirties ran a little place in Whistle Stop, Alabama, a Southern kind of Cafe Wobegon offering good barbecue and good coffee and all kinds of love and laughter, even an occasional murder. And as the past unfolds, the present--for Evelyn and for us--will never be quite the same again...

"Airplanes and television have removed the Threadgoodes from the Southern scene. Happily for us, Fannie Flagg has preserved a whole community of them in a richly comic, poignant narrative that records the exuberance of their lives, the sadness of their departure. Idgie Threadgoode is a true original: Huckleberry Finn would have tried to marry her!"
--Harper Lee, Author of To Kill a Mockingbird

"A real novel and a good one... [from] the busy brain of a born storyteller."
--The New York Times

"It's very good, in fact, just wonderful."
--Los Angeles Times

"Funny and macabre."
--The Washington Post

"Courageous and wise."
--Houston Chronicle

Thanks for sending me a wishlist book yorkshire-lass. I haven't yet received it and will update when it arrives.

Book arrived today. Thanks so much yorkshire-lass

I really enjoyed this book. It lived up to my expections. I loved the way that two stories are being told at the same time and correlate. The characters were lively and intreresting. A great little novel.

This one and an other book arrived some months ago but I forgot to register them. So sorry! thanks for sending them to me ;-)

It reads like a screenplay but I find it cliched and I can't get interested enough in the characters to keep reading - they seem like stereotypes to me. I tried to read it but failed at page 31. I expected more since I heard so much good about this book.

goes to the winner of the coloursweep!!!!

ENJOY!

A letter box surprise yippee!

put aside for the winner of the next Colour Sweeps - I did not read this as I remember the movie and life is to short and the mountain of books is too high.

Found in the post this morning...........oooh, could I be the winner????

Thanks Edwardstreet for the book, which I'm sure I'll enjoy - I don't think I ever saw the movie :)

I read this a couple of months ago, but see I forgot to journal it.
I enjoyed it for the most part - fun, light reading :)
