It is the predecessor to Proulx's award-winning ''The Shipping News''. ''Postcards'' cuts between stories of Loyal's travels and the stories of his family back in Vermont, to whom he sends irregular postcards about his life and experiences. Loyal never leaves a return address, so is unable to hear back from his family and therefore misses all the news from home, including the death of his father and mother, the sale of the family farm, and the marriage of his sister to a virtual stranger. The novel's content provides a personal view of America in the 20th Century, dealing with themes of war, industrialization, conservation and the American Dream.

''Postcards'' is an album by American musician Peter Ostroushko, released in 2006. The songs on ''Postcards'' are culled from songs Ostroushko wrote for ''A Prairie Home Companion''. With few exceptions, each piece is tied specifically to the location the show was visiting for that episode. Reception Ed Huyck of PopMatters wrote of the album "There is a certain familiarity to the songs, as if the tunes have been part of the American lexicon for decades. Ostroushko has studied hard through his career, and pulls together these different parts of traditional music—the ache of the blues and country, the stomp of traditional folk, the vibe of jazz—into a cohesive whole... Postcards does suffer from some of the usual instrumental album pitfalls. Though the musical styles are varied, the songs still tend to run into each other in the mind.
