HTML:<b>A funny, serious, and compelling novel by Fannie Flagg, author of the beloved <i>Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe</i> (and prize-winning co-writer of the classic movie).</b><br /> <br /> <b>“[This] tale of tough, eccentric, endearing women who first endure and then prevail. . . . will make you laugh out loud—and shed a few tears. . . . <i>Welcome to the World, Baby Girl!</i> is another rattling success.”—<i>Richmond Times-Dispatch</i></b><br /> <br /> 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.<br /> <br /> Among the colorful cast of characters are:<br /> <br /> Sookie, of Selma, Alabama, Dena's exuberant college roommate, who is everything that Dena is not; she is thrilled by Dena's success and will do everything short of signing autographs for her; Sookie's a mom, a wife, and a Kappa forever<br />         <br /> Dena's cousins, the Warrens, and her aunt Elner, of Elmwood Springs, Missouri, endearing, loyal, talkative, ditsy, and, in their way, wise<br />         <br /> Neighbor Dorothy, whose spirit hovers over them all through the radio show that she broadcast from her home in the 1940s<br />         <br /> Sidney Capello, pioneer of modern sleaze journalism and privateer of privacy, and Ira Wallace, his partner in tabloid television<br />         <br /> Several doctors, all of them taken with—and almost taken in by-Dena<br /> <br /> There are others, captivated by a woman who tries to go home again, not knowing where home or love lie.
