Best-selling author, and host of A Prairie Home Companion, Garrison Keillor will discuss his new book, A Christmas Blizzard, on Wednesday, December 2 at 7:00 p.m. at the University of Minnesota Bookstore in Coffman Memorial Union.

A Christmas Blizzard is vintage Keillor, a wry, witty look at a contemporary Scrooge that is sure to please. Follow the journey of James and Joyce Sparrow as they struggle with each other, Christmas in general, and their life circumstances. Everything changes when James finds himself snowed-in in a fishing shack during a blizzard where he meets a wolf, the Big Hair Lady, and a Chinese wise man, each attempting to teach him the great mystery of life.

Keillor will sign copies of his book following the discussion.

This event is free and open to the public. Reserved seating and priority signing placement is available for the first 100 customers who purchase A Christmas Blizzard from the University of Minnesota Bookstore or its web site.
