{"product_id":"daisy-fay-and-the-miracle-man-a-novel","title":"Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man: A Novel","description":"“A hilarious, endearing novel.”—Los Angeles Times\n\nIn Fannie Flagg’s high-spirited first novel, we meet Daisy Fay Harper in the spring of 1952, where she’s “not doing much except sitting around waiting for the sixth grade.” When she leaves Shell Beach, Mississippi, in September 1959, she is packed up and ready for the Miss America Pageant, vowing “I won’t come back until I’m somebody.” But in our hearts she already is.\n\nSassy and irreverent from the get-go, Daisy Fay takes us on a rollicking journey through her formative years on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. There, at The End of the Road of the South, the family malt shop freezer holds unspeakable things, society maven Mrs. Dot hosts Junior Debutante meetings and shares inspired thoughts for the week (such as “sincerity is as valuable as radium”), and Daisy Fay’s Daddy hatches a quick-cash scheme that involves resurrecting his daughter from the dead in a carefully orchestrated miracle. Along the way, Daisy Fay does a lot of growing up, emerging as one of the most hilarious, appealing, and prized characters in modern fiction.\n\nPraise for Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man\n\n“Sheer unbeatable entertainment.”—Cosmopolitan\n\n“Unforgettable and irresistible.”—Chattanooga Free Press\n\n“Side-splittingly funny.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0345485602\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0345485602.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Flagg, Fannie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
