Fiction - 5 stars - A true southern classic, Fried Green Tomatoes... gives readers a view of life in southern life from post-WWI through the early 1980s. Very different from the movie, the book details the lives of many characters that the movie omits, and it delves into topics that make the book truly provocative. It also describes the bonds of friendship as vital to the female characters. For me, the book was familiar, and it will be to anyone who has spent any time in the small-town South.
