cheyore 's review for:

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg

5.0

---

First read this book when it came out (and I was in my 30s). Loved it then for it's gently humorous portrait of a small town, and it's picture of a love affair between two women. Re-reading it I saw something different -- a story of an older woman coming to terms with middle age, and an older woman's grace in aging. Truly wonderful book
