SBCincinnati said I laughed. I cried. I cackled. I sobbed.. This easy to read big -picture-slice-of-life (and death) novel sweeps through over a century of the history of the citizen's of Elmwood Springs, MO.It is the kind of book you read on blustery days, when your down with a cold, and only a hot cup of tea, a comfy throw and a sweet book will make the world feel right again. I instantly fell in love with the characters and their stories. I laughed. I cried. I cackled. I sobbed.The best thing about this book is the myriad of characters, with all their gifts and flaws. I just loved the different personalities . Another good one by Fannie Flagg. Sharon S. Walker I love to read Fannie Flagg's books. Her books seem to have a theme, besides being funny, that "life is a gift" and "love never dies." Those same themes come across here too.This book is placed in Elmwood Springs, Missouri, a small town. It is about the fact that "the whole town is talking about" the goings in the cemetery.Interesting huh? Have I made your curious enough to want to read it?For me a book by Fannie Flagg about the happenings in a cemetery was enough for me.no spoilers here.. Thoughtful story that has both humor and depth "The Whole Town's Talking" is an adventure of a novel that's best experienced without any spoilers - other than the blurb on the back, I had no idea what kind of gem I was picking up to read.So as not to spoil any surprises, just the sketchiest of outlines: The story takes place from 1889 and slips off to possibly wander elsewhere in 2021. Some of the story involves the birth, growth, and changes of Elmwood Springs, MO., and of the people who founded the town and their families, friends and descendants. The story doesn't limit itself to Missouri; but wa

Original, profound, The Whole Town’s Talking, a novel in the tradition of Thornton Wilder’s Our Town and Flagg’s own Can’t Wait to Get to Heaven, tells the story of Lordor Nordstrom, his Swedish mail-order bride, Katrina, and their neighbors and descendants as they live, love, die, and carry on in mysterious and surprising ways. In The Whole Town’s Talking, she reminds us that community is vital, life is a gift, and love never dies.From the Hardcover edition.. Lordor Nordstrom created, in his wisdom, not only a lively town and a prosperous legacy for himself but also a beautiful final resting place for his family, friends, and neighbors yet to come. Odd things begin to happen, and it starts the whole town talking. With her wild imagination, great storytelling, and deep understanding of folly and the human heart, the beloved Fannie Flagg tells an unforgettable story of life, afterlife, and the remarkable goings-on of ordinary people. “Resting place” turns out to be a bit of a misnomer, however. Still Meadows, as it’s called, is anything but still. The bestselling author of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe is at her superb best in this fun-loving, moving novel about what it means to be truly alive. Elmwood Springs, Missouri, is a small town like any other, but something strange is happening

Fannie Flagg is the winner of the Harper Lee Prize. Fannie Flagg’s career started in the fifth grade when she wrote, directed, and starred in her first play, titled The Whoopee Girls, and she has not stopped since. Flagg’s script for the movie Fried Green Tomatoes was nominated
