Garrison Keillor is an American treasure. Mixing music, storytelling and humor, Keillor, best known for his weekly radio show A Prairie Home Companion, offers us a lighthearted, but deeply felt, reflection of ourselves. He's written more than 20 books, as well as columns, and with more than 4 million regular listeners, he is credited with single-handedly reviving the virtually lost art of live radio entertainment in America. Keillor will discuss and sign his two latest novels, Pilgrims: A Wobegon Romance and A Christmas Blizzard.

During the signing portion of the event, enjoy a musical performance by The Close Enough String Band.

Wobegon goes abroad in this rousing and moving story of a group trip to Rome. Like Mark Twain, Keillor takes time to spell out details and, in so doing, convert the base metal of small-town tedium to the gold of comedy.
