New York Times best seller

A heartwarming novel about secrets of youth rediscovered, hometown memories, and the magical moments in ordinary lives, from the beloved author of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe.

“A gift, a blessing and a triumph...celebrates the bonds of family and friends - and the possibilities of recovery and renewal.” (The Free Lance-Star)

Bud Threadgoode grew up in the bustling little railroad town of Whistle Stop with his mother, Ruth, church-going and proper, and his aunt Idgie, the fun-loving hell-raiser. Together they ran the town's popular Whistle Stop Cafe, known far and wide for its fun and famous fried green tomatoes. And as Bud often said of his childhood to his daughter, Ruthie, "How lucky can you get?" But sadly, as the railroad yards shut down and Whistle Stop became a ghost town, nothing was left but boarded-up buildings and memories of a happier time. Then one day, Bud decides to take one last trip, just to see what has become of his beloved Whistle Stop. In so doing, he discovers new friends, as well as surprises about Idgie's life, about Ninny Threadgoode and other beloved Fannie Flagg characters, and about the town itself. He also sets off a series of events, both touching and inspiring, that change his life and the lives of his daughter and many others. Could these events all be just coincidences? Or something else? And can you really go home again?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“The story blossoms in vintage Flagg style—folksy and feel-good. An abundance of Southern charm will delight both readers eager to journey back to beloved Whistle Stop and also those wanting to visit for the very first time.” Shelf Awareness

“Who can resist a visit to Whistle Stop and all her inhabitants, past and present? No one!” Library Journal

“Reading this novel is like entering a second childhood.” Kirkus Reviews

Much Better than Her Last Book

I enjoyed this latest book by Fannie Flagg. It was so much better than her last book
":The Whole Towns Talking" which I couldn't even finish.
There are some really colorful and endearing Characters in Whistle Stop Alabama.
Two things I did not enjoy was the disjointed jumping back and forth willy nilly of chapters
from 1930" to 1970" then back to the 40's and on to the 90"s then back to the 30's etc.
The Other thing I didn't appreciate was the swearing and language .It was quite unnecessary and
and detracted from the quality of the story. Despite these reservations it was a good read.
My Favorite Fannie Flagg story remains "The Redbird Christmas"

I LOVED this book!

I wanted a happy, feel good listen and this fit the bill. I laughed out loud over and over! Once you get to know the characters, you’ll fall in love with them all! The beginning is a bit slow, but trust me, you’ll love the plot very soon!

Loved it!

I loved the Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe story! I have watched the movie repeatedly over the years. When in Georgia, I went to Juliette where it was filmed and had fried green tomatoes at the cafe there. BBQ too!😂 What a lovely continuation and great escape especially during COVID. Thank you Fanny!

Love, love, Fannie Flagg!

Just the kind of read I needed today. Ms. Flagg took me into the lives of the characters and made me feel like part of their community. Ten stars for this one!

Fannie Flagg never disappoints!

Getting to revisit the town and characters for Whistle Stop is like visiting my own home town. I could listen to the stories all day long.

Delightful!

It helps if you've read Flagg's other books as characters from many of them appear in this one. The only thing I dislike about the narration is Flagg's use of the long a. Reminds me of reading aloud in the third grade.
