Welcome to the World, Baby Girl! by Fannie Flagg

Welcome to the World, Baby Girl! by Fannie Flagg

Welcome to the World, Baby Girl is the funny, serious, and compelling new novel by Fannie Flagg, author of the beloved Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe (and prize-winning co-writer of the classic movie).

Once again, Flagg's humor and respect and affection for her characters shine forth. Many inhabit small-town or suburban America. But this time, her heroine is urban: a brainy, beautiful, and ambitious rising star of 1970s television. Dena Nordstrom, pride of the network, is a woman whose future is full of promise, her present rich with complications, and her past marked by mystery.

Fannie Flagg's career began in fifth grade, when she wrote, directed, and starred in her first play, The Whoopee Girls, and she hasn't looked back since. She began writing and producing television specials at the age of nineteen, and eventually wrote for and appeared on Candid Camera. She subsequently went on to make a name for herself as a writer and actress in television, cinema, and theater. Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, and Welcome to the World, Baby Girl! are among her New York Times bestseller novels. Flagg's screenplay for Fried Green Tomatoes was nominated for an Academy Award and a Writers Guild of America Award, as well as winning the prestigious Scripter Award for outstanding screenplay of the year. Flagg splits his time between California and Alabama.
