Summary: So good, you want to hear it again, and again and again....
Comment: I checked this audio book out of the public library for a road trip several years ago, and was instantly hooked. I wore out the copy I made, and finally bought it. I listen to it regularly, with avidity, and have no idea when I'll get tired of it! Between each poem there is a pause of perhaps 30 seconds filled with intriguing noises, which allows you to dwell in the poem just read for a bit longer, while preparing you for the one to come-- a kind of aural sherbet between courses to freshen the mental palatte! The variety of poems-- modern, classic, metered, free verse, serious, witty; Garrison Keillor's melliflous voice and his sensitive interpretations, along with those marvelous sound-filled pauses between readings makes this particular collection an extremely pleasurable experience.

Summary: Keillor --a first-rate reader
Comment: Keillor is a proven master of storytelling, as thousands know who have enjoyed "A Prarie Home Companion". His "Writer's Almanac" NPR radio spots have demonstrated how thoughtfully he applies that storyteller's insight to the reading of poetry. This collection is marvellously read and is wonderfully varied--from light verse to Dickinson and Shakespeare, with gems by several modern American poets such Mary Oliver, May Swenson and Donald Hall. A great companion for home or car!
