About this product

Product Information

Garrison Keillor makes his long- awaited return to Lake Wobegon with this "New York Times" bestseller The first new Lake Wobegon novel in seven years is a cause for celebration. And "Pontoon" is nothing less than a spectacular return to form'replete with a bowling ball-urn, a hot-air balloon, giant duck decoys, a flying Elvis, and, most importantly, Wally's pontoon boat. As the wedding of the decade approaches (accompanied by wheels of imported cheese and giant shrimp shish kebabs), the good-loving people of Lake Wobegon do what they do best: drive each other slightly crazy.

Book received, exactly as described, carefully wrapped, condition is excellent. A chilling read, well written. This book contains many professional excerpts about personality disorder, including malignant narcissism. Glad to get this volume in a hard cover, which is easier to read. Generous price, great customer service!

  • The First Chapter Grabbed Me

    I read the first chapter online at the Prairie Home Companion's website and immediately bid for the book on ebay. Now that I've read it, I'm not disappointed, but I am a little....well, surprised, I guess. I have read and re-read Keillor's earlier works..."Lake Wobegon Days" and "Leaving Home" and laughed throughout both volumes, sometimes to tears. I guess I was a bit taken aback that so much sex has sneaked into his later works. Now, don't get me wrong...I'm no prude, and sex is a dandy thing, but Keillor's earlier books didn't have nearly as much fornication between the covers (pardon the pun) and I thought they were actually better books. I guess the bottom line is, I KNOW he can write a warm, funny and totally readable book without all the puffing and grunting, so why put so much ...

  • A Fun Read!

    I live in a small town and this book reminds me so much of our own town and the people who live here. I loved the characters - they are real to life with the same everyday problems we all have. Evelyn is a wonderful character! You won't understand this until you read the book, but at her 'memorial service' I laughed so much I was crying! I don't want to give anything away so I won't explain it here. Just be sure to get this book to find out about it.

  • Pontoon

    I like Garrison Keillor's brand of humor. Have several of his books and have seen him perform on stage to the delight of a sell out audience. If you like the dry humor and storytelling format which Garrison uses, you will like his books and CD's.

  • More Lake Wobegon hilarity.

    Being from a small town myself, Garrison Keillor takes me back to relive so much of what I remember.

    I bought this book as a Christmas gift because it was requested. I know nothing about the story and cannot, therefore, review the book.
