Common Good Books

Garrison Keilor’s bookstore, Common Good Books situated in the cozy Cathedral Hill neighborhood of St. Paul is a treasure. Although their selection ranges from politics to children’s books, there is a special focus on local and regional authors as well as Keillor’s favorite poetry. Grab a coffee from Nina’s Caf? upstairs and plan to spend some time at Common Good Books. Visit their website at http://www.commongoodbooks.com/ for upcoming events, book features, and staff recommendations.

The independent movie SWEET land is new to video. This epic love story, based and shot in Southern Minnesota,
is a tender tale of two American immigrants who have to work to find love and acceptance during a post-WWII era.
The landscape is beautiful and familiar – rent this movie on the next rainy Saturday afternoon.
