About this title

About the Author:

GARRISON KEILLOR is America’s favorite storyteller. For more than 35 years, as the host of A Prairie Home Companion, he has captivated millions of listeners with his weekly News from Lake Wobegon monologues. A Prairie Home Companion is heard on hundreds of public radio stations, as well as America One, the Armed Forces Networks, Sirius Satellite Radio, and via a live audio webcast. 
 
Keillor is also the author of several books and a frequent contributor to national publications including Time, The New Yorker, and National Geographic, in addition to writing his own syndicated column. He has been awarded a National Humanities Medal from the National Endowment of the Humanities. When not touring, he resides in St. Paul, Minnesota.

From AudioFile:

Keillor reads his own short stories without an audience. Ranging in topic from baseball to the perils of fame, the stories are humorous, serious and contemplative. As always, Keillor doesn't develop individual character voices, but rather illustrates their places within the community by his tone and inflection. E.S.B. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
