‘These tales of everyday life in Lake Wobegon – about rhubarb pie, the perils of prophecy, a miserable Thanksgiving, Florian and Myrtle’s thrifty vacation, the vapour lights of Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility – were all recorded on tour. They show an abiding restlessness among Lake Wobegon’s residents, especially in March, the month God created to show people who don’t drink what a hangover is like. But our women are strong, our children are all above average, and as for us men – well, we could look worse.’
