How's this for a distinguished way for a reviewer to describe a book? It was okay.While parts of it were mildly amusing, many more parts of it were absolutely boring. Because I'm the kind of reader who finishes what I start no matter what, I found myself plodding through too much of the book to give it more than three stars.But I have to give author Garrison Keillor a lot of credit for creating this fictional town of Lake Wobegon, Minnesota. He not only populates it with a wide assortment of characters, but also gives it a history and backstory that are a real credit to the man's phenomenal imagination. That said, the history and backstory of Lake Wobegon are yawningly tedious and uninteresting—and that's the entire first third of the book. So enormous patience and dedication are required on the part of the reader.The book is essentially a series of vignettes about life in Lake Wobegon, taking place primarily—but not exclusively—in the 1950s, with bold leaps—sometimes without warning—into the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Yes, it can be very confusing. (At one point, I thought we were in the '50s-'60s timeframe when suddenly there was a reference to the rock band AC/DC.) The stories bleed into each other, sometimes without even the benefit of a paragraph break.More than anything, I was disappointed. I expected more.
After listening to Keillor on the radio for many years, I figured it was time to read one of his books. Lake Wobegon Days is a great description of the author's fictitious hometown in Minnesota. Keillor did a great job of bringing me into the town--that I wish was my hometown, and watching the antics of the residents.As a normal "fast" reader, I was surprised how long it took me to get through this book. However, it dawned on me that it was due to Keillor's slow story-telling voice echoing through my head as I read, reading the book to me--which only made the it better. On a few occasions I tried to plow through some pages at my normal pace and in my own voice, but it didn't work. I went back and let Keillor's voice read it to me and it all made sense.
... I can hear his melodious voice throughout the book ... about the time I first began listening to a prairie home companion I'd started a relationship with a woman whose parents had come from a small town in Wisconsin. I'd come from a slightly larger town in Indiana. Had cousins in Minneapolis. The Hoosier farmers in my family were cosmopolitan compared to foreigners, but republicans, Lutherans, not much on humor. My soon to be wife was of Norwegian stock. A candle I called them the word droll epitomizes keillors humor. Very, very insightful in the dreaded environment of such stark, damaging functionality ... No wonder alcoholism is so prevalent, but that word's. Rarely used, as it was in my Catholic Irish family. The sharp edge of ethnic heritages impact on humans is like a surgical scalpel in keillors hands. Superb a tremendously funny read, but opens up some painful experiences,too
Read thi book and find out. And who would have thought of blending three events, Lutheran pastors on a pontoon boat, a hot air balloon, and a scattering of ashes cremony could produce such laughs from a reader. I actually started laughing so hard I thought I'd never stop. If laughter is good for the soul, mine definitely got a lift from this book.
Great stories by a beloved and gifted writer. Along the way ou'll learn the history and characters of Lake Wobegon. If you love Prairie Home Companion, you'll appreciate the stories here that give background to many of his weekly presentations on public radio.
its garrison keillor... what could be bad about this :)
I have listened to and read most of Keillor's material. I purchased this for a long car ride and enjoyed it again. I read the book several years ago and listened to on the old tape deck. Glad to see his material for the Echo.
Great funny clean story teller.
