Fanny Flagg is the author of three marvelous books, one of which is
_Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe_. Whether it's true
or not I can't really say but according to my father she's a relative
of ours (and considering how good a writer she is I'll happily claim
her as kin).
I haven't read the latest book but FGT was, in my opinion, the lesser
of her first two books though it's much better known. If you haven't
read her stuff you should -- she's got a sense of humor, wisdom and a
real love of life. She's your sort of author.
At an earlier point in time she was a comedienne who achieved a
modicum of fame.
