Representaion As Books Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man

In 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. Sassy 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.

Write-Up Containing Books Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man

No. I hated the way this was written. I enjoy Flagg usually for what she does but this story was just a string of sentences thrown together. Try another first.PS. I just read where this is her first book... she gets better

We meet Daisy Fay Harper when she is eleven years old, and we follow her transformation from girl to woman through the pages of her diary. I love this book; every time I read it I laugh out loud. The Haunted House scene in Part I is priceless, as is the Miss Mississippi beauty pageant in Part 2.But life is not all candy corn and roses for Daisy Fay. She has to come to terms with some very adult issues over the years, and all of these are handled with delicate skill by the author and Daisy

There were some really funny, laugh-out-loud moments in this book, but I have to admit a lot of it felt kind of sordid. Daisy Fay's father was a ne'er-d0-well, skirt-chasing alcoholic who couldn't hold a job, but he did always take care of his daughter. Luckily for Daisy Fay, she did find several adults who took a healthy interest in her and tried to help her become all she could be. The story is set in 1950's Mississippi, so there are some real racial overtones to add authenticity.This is one

I liked the first 100 pages of this book and really appreciated the fresh, funny voice of the 11-year-old narrator. She seemed like the embodiment of that age as I remember it. I eventually tired of the story though and honestly didn't think a lot of the things that happened to her were funny.

Daisy Fay Harper is now one of my favorite characters! She is spunky and independent and surrounded by a great cast of characters. This book spans Daisy Fays life from 1952-1959 at the beginning of the book she is 11 years old. Daisy Fays daddy is a drunk but she stands by him through thick and thin, he isnt a mean drunk so thats ok LOL.It is so fun to read about her discovering life especially since this book is set in the 50s.One of my favorite scenes is when they are living in Shell Beach and

Haaaaaated it! I don't understand the inspiration behind this book (or, shall I say, the lack thereof?) For starters, what would possess a person to write a book about "white trash" in the first place? Secondly, why do her critics call it "side-splittingly funny" and "sheer, unbeatable entertainment"? I didn't miss the attempted humor...I just found this book to be morally degrading and not all that funny. Some parts caused me to wonder why on earth someone would send this book to print and not

This was a fun book. I always enjoy books by this author. Im a fan of Southern stories. Daisy Fay is a fun interesting girl and this book is written in diary form from the time shes 11 in 1952 Mississippi to when she heads out on her own in 1959 for the Big City! Its funny, sad, tragic, poignant and heartwarming all at the same time!! Ive had it on my bookshelf for several years wanting to read it, but since were all in lockdown from the Carona virus and the library is closed. Now is the perfect
