Leaving Home: A Collection of Lake Wobegon Stories by Garrison Keillor | Heartwarming Short Stories About Small-Town Life | Perfect for Book Clubs, Relaxing Reads & American Literature Fans

These are some of his best stories from his mythical world of Wobegon. If you are a fan of the old shows, you will recognize one or two of these tales - or at least these versions of them. He undoubtedly recycled some over the years, but in this era, he was in peak form. Reading them again, they make clear why Keillor one of the best writers of his life and times, if not truly our Mark Twain. Never sliding into fake folksiness, his observational style remains funny, poignant, pithy, clear headed and nothing short of everything that we expect from this marvelous American writer. Thank you, Garrison!!
