«Happy to be Here» is Garrison Keillor's collection of stories and humorous pieces, published by Faber & Faber in paperback (269 pages, in English).
Garrison Keillor invites the reader to join the Movement for the Rights of the Shy, visit The People's Shopper and discover the truth about Cinderella told in the language of 'My Stepmother, Myself'. His pieces, full of humour and satire, portray everyday life, family and the absurdity of the human condition.
Almost all the pieces were originally published in The New Yorker; the cover illustration is by Pierre Le Tan.
For readers of humour and short fiction and for fans of Garrison Keillor.
Gary Edward "Garrison" Keillor is an American author, singer, humorist, voice actor, and radio personality. He created the Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) show A Prairie Home Companion, which he hosted from 1974 to 2016. Keillor created the fictional Minnesota town Lake Wobegon, the setting of many of his books, including Lake Wobegon Days and Leaving Home: A Collection of Lake Wobegon Stories. Other creations include Guy Noir, a detective voiced by Keillor who appeared in A Prairie Home Companion comic skits. Keillor is also the creator of the five-minute daily radio/podcast program The Writer's Almanac, which pairs poems of his choice with a script about important literary, historical, and scientific events that coincided with that date in history.
