Leaving Home by Garrison Keillor

In this collection of Lake Wobegon stories, Keillor takes his readers back to that world, the place that is everybody's home town 'where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.' Leaving Home is a tribute to the life and people of Lake Wobegon, an elegy and a celebration, narrated with the gentle wit for which Garrison Keillor has been acclaimed.
Garrison Keillor lives in St Paul, Minnesota, home of A Prairie Home Companion, his radio show that has been on the air since 1974. He wrote and appeared in Robert Altman's final film, A Prairie Home Companion and is the author of many books including the Lake Wobegon novels, which include Lake Wobegon Days, Pontoon and Pilgrims.
