I've enjoyed the work of Garrison Keillor for many years, and I still turn on the radio at 5 PM on most Saturday afternoons for A Prairie Home Companion. His recent reincarnation as a political commentator is also a delight.
The man is an artist, deftly daubing words and images from far domains onto a plain canvas, gently touching old dreams and memories to craft a compelling creation, all soft and sweet, except for the sharp edges, which can be very sharp.
The danger of enjoying him too much is that it can inspire one to attempt to scale the heights he owns, even those who should not take on the project, because they lack the necessary equipment.
Enjoy this thoughtfully crafted gem, disguised as an ode to spring and to love: from The Chicago Tribune
