Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg

---

Not sure how to rate this. Some issues were handled very poorly, but I understand that this book (partially) takes place in the 30s and was written in the 80s. Some things were progressive for the time (in the story or in real life) and some things were still unacceptable. Despite some of the incidents that are clearly framed as being wrong and harmful, I think that the author has a definite bias that she wasn’t really able to overcome over the course of writing this book
