Pohane zelene rajčice
The novel Fried Green Tomatoes takes us to the small town of Whistle Stop, Alabama, where two women – the rebellious Idgie Threadgoode and her precious friend Ruth – struggle for love and dignity in an era of segregation and patriarchy.
Idgie, a wild soul from a respectable family, rescues Ruth from an abusive marriage, and together they open the charming Whistle Stop Cafe. Here, over fried green tomatoes, pot roast, and endless cups of coffee, stories of lives are woven together: from black housewife Sipsey and her son Big George, to the rascal Smokey and local powerbrokers. Through Nina's stories, listened to by a disillusioned Evelyn in a nursing home, we discover mysteries, laughter, and tears - from a tragic accident to a murder trial, all imbued with subtle love and solidarity. Fannie Flagg's nostalgic, humorous style is reminiscent of Harper Lee: she celebrates "real people" who carry a faith in justice in their hearts. Evelyn, inspired by Idgie's "Towanda!" spirit, finds the strength to change her life. This classic story of female courage, racism, and family ties - which inspired the cult film from 1991 - touches the heart and lifts the spirit. Ideal for lovers of warm novels with a deep message!
