Some of Keillor's funniest News From Lake Wobegon moments, perfect for anyone new to the writer's work and a welcome addition to every die-hard fan's Prairie Home Companion collection.
The stories are something we all could relate to. It held my 19 year old daughters attention and that was nice to be able to share something our whole family could enjoy. Rare This is not only funny, and I mean at times very funny. It was relaxing and interesting.
It can be a little boring at times. This CD is great for a long drive, or long flight, it is entertaining and better than a book on tape.
The stories from Lake Wobegon are the best sleeping potions available--and there are no side effects other than falling asleep with a smile on your face. I love to give these collections of monologues to folks who are experiencing a long recovery from surgery or undergoing medical treatment. The monologues are funny to listen to, and after they have listened to them a time or two, just hearing Garrison Keillor's soothing voice has a calming effect.
He is usually a great story teller. Garrison Keillor has a wonderful way with words, but this CD was disappointing. This will still not deter me from buying and listening to other news from Lake Wobegon. He seemed to run out of steam on this 4hour tape. The stories dragged on too long and sometimes with no purpose in the end or sentiment to remember. Keillor can do much better.
