Description

Fannie Mae Turner died on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2008. She was the daughter of sharecroppers. She was born in a shack on a dusty, dirt road in the backwoods of Macon County, Georgia in 1922. Fannie Mae had skin the color of red Georgia clay. On the day she was born her mother screamed, not because of the difficult childbirth, but for the mere fact that her baby girl was the color of dirt with eyes as black as coal dust.”

And so begins and eventually ends the life of Fannie Mae turner from Macon county, Georgia. A true native of the Deep South, Fannie Mae Turner married and loved Henry Turner and bore five girls, Belle, Nettie, Rosalie, Christine and Elenora. They raised their daughters very much in the same way that Fannie’s mother had raised her — to be God-fearing, hard-working girls who knew how to be strong when called upon. Each girl was as different as her name. Belle, the oldest, was called “lil buck” after her grandpa Buck. Nettie, the second girl, was nicknamed “sis.” Rosalie was called “big red,” because she was the same color as her mother. Christine was called “sweetie Pie.” And, Elenora went by the name “Girlie.”

Miss Fannie Mae’s Girls is a deeply personal yet eloquently simple, charming and irreverent story about the bonds of family, loyalty, loss and love found. Take a sweet journey into the heart of this colorful group of characters whose deep; spiritual bonds and kind, loving support were engendered in them by the great Fannie Mae Turner. You will both laugh and cry with them, as they mourn the loss of their beloved mother Fannie Mae only to rediscover their sense of family, place and purpose through the marriage of Christine turner and Horace Lee Miller. This is a story you will take with you in your heart long after you’ve read it.
