Lake Wobegon Days

Garrison Keillor

Garrison Keillor’s fictional Midwestern town, Lake Wobegon, has long since passed into literary legend. Lake Wobegon Days, his first unforgettable portrait of life in the American small-town named after an Indian word meaning “Here we are!” or “We sat all day in the rain waiting for you”, is a modern classic of warmth, humor and tenderness which introduces the reader to “a cast of characters to rival Mark Twain” (Daily Mail)

“Wryly affectionate and irresistibly funny, it’s a delight read and very good company.” —Miranda Seymour, Evening Standard
