OsamdesttrogodiÅ¡nja gospođa Clea Threadgoodea priÄÂom će o svome životu promijeniti život sredovjeÄÂne kućanice Evelyn Couch, žene kojoj su sivilo braka i viÅ¡ak kilograma oduzeli svako samopouzdanje. No priÄÂom o svojoj proÅ¡losti i ona će u mislima otići u gostionicu Whiste Stop u Alabami tridesetih godina proÅ¡loga stoljeća, gdje se moglo naruÄÂiti dobru kotlovinu (a tajna je bila u umaku), popiti joÅ¡ bolju kavu, uvjeriti se Å¡to je bezgraniÄÂna ljubav i povjerenje, ali i nauÄÂiti kako zataÅ¡kati poneko ubojstvo.

The Written Review
If you haven't read this yet - get it now. It's funny, most people can be around someone and they gradually begin to love them and never know exactly when it happened; but Ruth knew the very second it happened to her. It's a love story, a friendship story and so much more. There's survival against the odds, murder, and absolute hilarity. In short - really, truly awesome. Remember if people talk behind your back, it only means you are two steps ahead Mrs. Threadgoode is at the same nursing home as Evelyn's spiteful mother-in-law. During one such visit, Evelyn stops by Mrs. Threadgoode's room, and soon an everlasting friendship sparks.
Mrs. Threadgoode tells Evelyn stories from a not-so-distant past, when racism was rampart and certain home values were taken utterly seriously. She tells of larger-than-life Idgie, sweet and gentle Ruth, and of course a whole cast of truly unforgettable characters. You never know what's in a person's heart until they're tested, do you? Her stories give Evelyn a new outlook on life - suddenly, she's not the mousy, dissatisfied middle-aged wife - she's got spunk. She's got character. And she'd be damned if she let one more person walk all over her. Face it girls. I'm older and I have more insurance. Gah. It's one of those books that just sweeps you off your feet and holds a special place in your heart forever. It's fluffy, but the kind of fluff that has you squealing with happiness and chasing someone down to let them know how great this book is.
I buddy-read this one with my mother and we really, truly bonded over these words. We laughed and teared up at the same parts. This is one experience I will treasure.
This book belongs on every bookshelf
Audiobook Comments
Read by Lorna Raver - and she just brought this story alive. Truly a stunning listen. She had all the right tones and inflections in all the right places. It felt like I was right there in the story.
