I have started Pontoon: A Lake Wobegon Novel by Garrison Keillor. I was in the US and wanted to line up some easy reading. Being in the States always makes me think of Garrison Keillor, The Prairie Home Companion and The News from Lake Wobegon, so this was an easy choice. Here’s the blurb:
In Lake Wobegon lives a good Lutheran lady who wishes for her ashes placed inside a bowling ball and dropped into the lake. Meanwhile, a wedding between a veterinary aromatherapist and her boyfriend Brent is set to take place aboard a pontoon boat. A delegation of renegade Lutheran pastors from Denmark has come to town, and there's Raoul of the cigars and tinted shades, come to visit his elderly lover. All is in readiness for the wedding - the French champagne, the flying Elvis, the giant duck decoys - and then something quite unexpected happens . . .
