    In Cheerfulness, veteran radio host and author Garrison Keillor reflects on a simple virtue that can help us in this stressful and sometimes gloomy era. Drawing on personal anecdotes from his young adulthood into his eighties, Keillor sheds light on the immense good that can come from a deliberate work ethic and a buoyant demeanor. "Adopting cheerfulness as a strategy does not mean closing your eyes to evil," he tells us; "it means resisting our drift toward compulsive dread and despond." Funny, poignant, thought-provoking, and whimsical, this is a book that will inspire you to choose cheerfulness in your daily life.

    Another wonderful poetry anthology from Garrison Keillor-rooted in the American landscape. Greatness comes in many forms, and as Garrison Keillor demonstrates daily on The Writer's Almanac, the most affecting poems in the canon are in plain English. Third in Keillor's series of anthologies, Good Poems, American Places brings together poems that celebrate the geography and culture that bind us together as a nation. Think of these poems as postcards from the road, by poets who've gotten carried away by a particular place-a town in Kansas, a kitchen window in Nantucket, a Manhattan street, a farm in western Minnesota. Featuring famous poets and brash unknowns alike, the verses in this exhilarating collection prove that the heart can be exalted anywhere in America.

    af Garrison Keillor
    298,95 kr.

    Return to America's most beloved fictional hometown! Lake Wobegon is having a boom year thanks to millennial entrepreneurship--AuntMildred's.com Gourmet Meatloaf, for example, or Universal Fire, makers of artisanal firewood seasoned with sea salt. Meanwhile, the author flies in to give eulogies at the funerals of five classmates, including a couple whom he disliked, and he finds a wave of narcissism crashing on the rocks of Lutheran stoicism. He is restored by the humor and grace of his old girlfriend Arlene and a visit from his wife, Giselle, who arrives from New York for a big love scene in an old lake cabin.

    "Da Magnus i 1863 kom fra Nordstatshærens blodige felttog, hed byen endnu New Albion, og beboerne var kommet fra New England. Han kaldte dem for ’skovmænd’ – hvilket skyldtes navnet på deres forening eller ’loge’, ’The Mystical and Enlightened Order og Woodmen’, - ’Skovmændenes Mystiske og Oplyste Orden’. Det skyldtes også deres udseende; deres ansigter var som mejslet i tømmer. Ingen hilste ham på norsk. Han kunne kun tilstrækkeligt engelsk til at bede om, hvad han gerne ville have."Garrison Keillors bog Lake Wobegon rummer en lang række humoristiske skildringer af livet i en lille by i Midtvesten. For selvom Lake Wobegon er fiktiv, findes der utallige byer ligesom den. Fortællingerne starter ved byens grundlæggelse i starten af 1800-tallet, da den stadig hed New Albion og fortsætter til langt op i 1980’erne med at portrættere de forskellige indbyggeres finurlige historier.Den amerikanske forfatter og radiovært Garrison Keillor (f. 1942) er kendt for sine humoristiske skildringer af folk og fæ i den fiktive lille by Lake Wobegon i Minnesota. Hans bøger startede som oplæsninger i radioen og blev så populære, at de senere udkom som bøger. Garrison Keillors bøger er blevet oversat til en lang række fremmedsprog og har vundet ham stor popularitet i hele verden.
