Garrison Keillor tells a lot of stories about Norwegian Lutheran families from Minnesota... Yes, I think he has been eavesdropping on my family conversations!

hi hair, I love that book cause of understanding it gave me about norwegian lutheran familes
I know he was furious at his family when he wrote it
and the book is hysterical
even tho in one way my family could not be more different
(my parents were atheist socialist jewish new yorkers)
in another way I totally identified, cause my parents did not identify with the mainstream
plus it made me feel so close and intimate with conservative norwegian lutherans
(I got to love them)
Love, Palo
