Product Description

Gospel Birds is a collection of nine classic and very funny monologues from the early years of A Prairie Home Companion. In addition to the title story (about Irma and Ernie Lundeen's traveling flock of acrobatic, bible-reciting birds), contents include:
  • Pastor Ingqvist's Trip to Orlando
  • Mammoth Concert Tickets
  • The Tollerud's Korean Baby
  • Meeting Donny Hart at the Bus Stop
  • Bruno, the Fishing Dog
  • Gospel Birds
  • A Day at the Circus with Mazumbo
  • Sylvester Krueger's Desk
  • Babe Ruth visits Lake Wobegon
Gospel Birds is Garrison Keillor at his very best—endearing insights, gentle humor and warm affection for the human foibles we all share.
