Understanding the Meaning of Poverty: A Review of Wobegon Boy by Garrison Keillor. Viking Press.
SLAN! Hello Goodbye A one word review for Wobegon Boy!
Garrison Keillor, Wobegon Boy, Viking Press.
Garrison Keillor got his first major publishing break with the New Yorker, while he was living in St Cloud, Mn. Patrick ODougherty was born in the St Cloud Hospital. Garrison Keillor hails from Ferry Street in Anoka Minnesota. The Wobegon trail begins in Holding-ford, MN which is in the St Cloud Stearns County Minnesota area. Garrison Keillor has a huge thirst for high brow literature. He blends this thirst with small town stories wit and wisdom. What explains this thirst?
Understanding true poverty: The Wobegon Trail
You don’t know what true poverty is until you have visited Holding-Ford MN or Avon, Minnesota or Watkins, MN. Garrison Keillor got a start at St John’s University, Collegeville, Mn where I attended college as an undergraduate. He has had an Al Pacino, Scarface, experience at the University. This is very unfortunate.
I attended Jon Hassler autograph parties, North of Hope, in the Great Hall at SJU. My reaction to a tragic literary experience is SLAN which is Irish for hello goodbye, Wobegon Boy, Garrison Keillor.
Dr Patrick ODougherty ironically is a founder of the Anoka Voice which was instrumental in passing the Wellstone Mental Health Parity Act for parity for psychology consumers.
