註釋Welcome to a year in the life of Alfalfa, a small town in middle- America, a farm community where you will meet: Hilbert TeBrake, who is convinced this is the year he will finally beat Earlie Prior in the giant cauliflower championship at the Alfalfa Fair; VanderLeek, Lubbers and Klop, three frugal farmers who together buy a boar named Wild Oats, then devise an ingenious plan to breed their own sows - but only on Sundays; Robert Meyer the town photographer, a bachelor and the best friend a bride ever had; and, Dorothy DeHeer, a pastor's wife who dreams of a rendezvous in the Cayman Islands with a secret lover. This book contains stories and characters which will remind the reader of Garrison Keilor.
