Fannie Flagg is a rare writer for these times, her gentle, kind and wise books touch the best strings in the human soul.
Life is a very strange thing. Just now tireless Elner climbed a fig tree to pick sweet ripe fruit, and the next moment she is already vigorously communicating with the Lord God and the inhabitants of paradise.
And while Elner is enjoying heavenly conversations, a real light-hearted conflagration is taking place on earth. Her nervous niece Norma has fainted, her friend Luther has plunged into a ditch with his truck, and her neighbor Verbena has rushed to study the Bible. Looking at all this
the Lord concluded that it was too soon for Elner to go to heaven to deal with earthly matters.
Heaven, as it turns out, is right next door to us, among the people we love and who need our help. And Fannie Flagg came into our world to write wonderful, kind books that don't have a single false note.
Fannie Flagg is one of those few writers whose wise and poetic books leave a long and wonderfully satisfying aftertaste. Charming, funny and pinchingly heartfelt prose Fannie Flagg - a universal remedy for moping. Enjoying the cozy world of her novels, making a brief acquaintance with lively and recognizable characters, we get a great chance for a while to forget about the worries and difficulties that surround us in real life.
Psychology
