Description
About the Book
"Prairie Home Companion" fans, Garrison Keillor is alive and well, with humor intact. The wry Minnesotan, transplanted to the land of subways and skyscrapers, is still dishing up his peculiar brand of warmth and wit. This new collection contains tales of love fumbled and recovered, satiric social comment, and letters on marriage and fatherhood.Book Synopsis
"Garrison Keillor made it possible, after twenty years of black humor...to be both funny and nice, hip and winsome, scathing and loving, all in the flick of a single many-barbed quip----The Washington Post Book World"Keillor's literary style is as flexible and assured as his vocal delivery. It can slip from mood to mood so subtly and quickly you're never quite sure where you are.... [His] writing has the silvery slip of running water, so graceful and easy it's hard to believe it can carry so much that is jagged and unresolved. His integrity lies in his not smoothing away those rough edges in the swift current of his prose; they're bruisingly, sometimes cuttingly there." --The Village Voice
