It doesn't take a Norwegian to Love Leaving Home
Any Garrison Keillor offering is a splendid purchase, particularly Leaving Home, a Collection of Lake Wobegon Stories. Like you, I work hard for a living, leaving little time and energy for pleasure reading. What better material is there than the profoundly meaningful story of the "Truckstop" or the tear-jerking "Homecoming" tale...or, for that matter each of the short stories. Become acquainted with the families in this typically small midwestern town, feel their anguish and exhilaration, uncertainty and blunders. One cannot help but identify with such real-life characters. You'll chuckle at some, weep at others, and connect with them all. My suggestion is to slowly savor this book. Since each chapter is a complete story, you'll be transported far far away from Hollywood and right into ...

Since each chapter is a complete story, you'll be transported far far away from Hollywood and right into the neighborhood bar for a cold Wendy and insight into religion or perhaps the Chatterbox Cafe, more for chums and gossip than a hot meal. If this sounds nutty, you can join the fans of "A Prairie Home Companion" and treat yourself to "Leaving Home," which is based on the famous radio series. If a copy is available on Ebay, don't hesitate to buy. With over 30 yarns, it is guaranteed great reading whether you need an hilarious pick-me-up or some serious soul-searching.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!
I LOVE THIS BOOK. My husband received it for a gift almost 25 years ago, and I have read it several times. I like the many short stories, they are funny as hell and I can relate to all of them, being from the midwest. Keillor talks about sweet corn, Norweigans, summer carnivals, Minnesota, a man forgetting his wife at the truck stop and getting lost on the way to pick her up, tomatoes and going on tomato relief if you don't cover them during a frost, chickens, relatives... it's all sweet and funny and honest. This book has tickled me since I was in my twenties. I ordered a second book to bring to the nursing home so the residents that can still read can enjoy it.I LOVE THIS BOOK.
