Author

Garrison Keillor

Garrison Keillor, born in Anoka, Minnesota, in 1942, is an essayist, columnist, blogger, and writer of sonnets, songs, and limericks, whose novel Pontoon the New York Times said was “a tough-minded book . . . full of wistfulness and futility yet somehow spangled with hope”—no easy matter, especially the spangling. Garrison Keillor wrote and hosted the radio show A Prairie Home Companion for more than forty years, all thanks to kind aunts and good teachers and a very high threshold of boredom. In his retirement, he’s written a memoir and a novel. He and his wife, Jenny Lind Nilsson, live in Minneapolis and New York.

    Fans of Garrison Keillor will enjoy this eclectic collection of mirth and music. No one tells a story quite like Keillor, and you will be highly entertained with tales from the Norwegian bachelor farmers, the Lutheran ministers, and the charismatic Lutheran church, just to mention a few. With a generous sprinkling of songs thrown in, this is one collection you'll listen to time and again.
