Happy to Be Here

?Keillor?s best stuff is clean (in the sense that lines are clean), down to earth, exquisitely good-hearted, highly ludicrous, and as labored as nitrous oxide?. This book will either leave you dumbfounded or happy—almost deservedly happy—to be anywhere? —The New York Times Book Review

?His humor is cerebral and complex, a blend of romance and nostalgia; it sparklingly parodies the American (and human) condition?. His stories and satires glow with a sense of time and place.? —The Washington Post
