Host and writer of Minnesota Public Radio’s A Prairie Home Companion, Garrison Keillor is a storyteller, humorist, columnist, musician, satirist, and the author of more than a dozen books including Homegrown Democrat: A Few Plain Thoughts from the Heart of America, the 2007 New York Times bestseller Pontoon, and many other books for adults and children that feature his fictional hometown, Lake Wobegon. Liberty, Keillor’s latest Wobegon story features its over-the-top Fourth of July celebration and presents Lake Wobegon as it has always been: a community of good loving people who drive each other crazy.
