Lake Wobegon Days: Original Radio 4 Broadcast (Radio Collection)

Not as good as its reputation
• • • • • (bewertet mit 2 von 5 Punkten)

This book came highly recommended but I found it wanting. While reading this collection of related stories about small town life in the midwest, I did manage to find a few gems. These few were good because they provided me with insight on real people without judging them. However, it seems that in the vast majority of the tales, Mr Keillor is looking down his nose at the participants. Often it seems Mr Keillor is making fun of their idiosyncrasies by exaggerating them. Sometimes, the book was even unpleasant to read because the characters were defenseless against Mr Keillor's unrelenting assault. I can not recommend this book but would urge readers who want a good look at small town/country life and the real people that live there to check out James Herriot. It is Yorkshire, England and not midwestern US but the insight's of the writing are unbeatable.
