Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistle Stop Cafe

Description for FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AT THE WHISTLE STOP CAFE by Fannie Flagg: 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...
