Book Reviews of Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man
Book Review: The Joys and Trials of Growing Up
Summary: 5 Stars
This is another of Fannie Flaggs deeply delightful books. The rich characture development is so attention grabbing. What a joy to follow along through the eyes and words of a pre-teen on into adulthood. Another cast of zany oddfellows. I recommend this to young and older readers alike.
Summary of Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man
Here is Fannie Flagg's high-spirited and unabashedly sentimental first novel, the precursor to the bestselling Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe.Taken from the pages of Daisy Fay Harper's journal, this is a coming of age story set in rural Mississippi that is by turns hilarious and touching. It begins in 1952 when Daisy Fay is a sassy, truth-tellin' but lonely eleven-year old, and ends six years later when she becomes the flamboyant, unlikely -- but assured -- winner of the Miss Mississippi contest. Along the way, we meet some of the raffish and outrageous town locals, including her own Daddy, who comes up with a mortgage scheme that requires Daisy's "resurrection." This is a thoroughly entertaining comic novel with a heroine who is bound to capture your heart.
Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg is also available from Random House AudioBooks.
