«Radio Romance» is the humorous novel by Garrison Keillor, published by Faber Faber Inc in paperback (416 pages, in English).
The plot revolves around WLT, a local radio station known as «Friendly Neighbor», and the people who work at or listen to the station: announcers, advertisers and listeners. With humour and a surreal touch, Keillor portrays the world of American radio, its ads, programmes and small everyday stories, in a choral comedy full of misunderstandings and eccentric characters.
First novel by Garrison Keillor, originally published in 1992; this edition is from 1993 and has 416 pages.
For readers of literary humour and American fiction, especially stories set in the world of radio.
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.
