Seller Description
#paperback#minnesota#newspaper#twincities#columnist#amysdad A 10-year collection of Jim Klobuchar's columns in the Minneapolis Star and Tribune displaying the wide shifts in locale, mood, and field of action in which he writes. He deals with the humbug and the absorptions of politics, with adventure and death, and with the doleful end of the skier who lost her pants. He looks gingerly at the follies and small revenges of daily life, and celebrates the nobility he sees. He writes of the casual ways people can be ground down by institutions of power, and of the moments when the more dogged ones elude that fate-- and sometimes reform the institution. He is a native of Ely, Minnesota, a graduate of the University of Minnesota, and was a member of an Army psychological-warfare unit in his service years. His daughter is Senator Amy Klobuchar. This book is in good condition with no wear to the spine. Pages are clean and unmarked. Covers are lightly worn around the edges and starting to discolor. Printed in 1986, 290 pp.
