I still Dream About You, Fannie Flagg

I first saw Fannie Flagg as a comedian, on I think Alan Funts hidden camera show, not that she isn't funny in this novel. Like Fried Green Tomatoes, it takes place in the South, and has a murder/mystery, and strong women; it gives you a real sensory look at life in Birmingham Alabama-current day, and recent past. I loved it.
