Stories From The Vinyl Cafe
This Book is Currently in the Wild!
2 journalers for this copy...
For a few years, it was my Saturday morning routine to turn on CBC radio at 9am and listen to Stuart McLean and the Vinyl Cafe. Most times, my sleeping family would be woken from their sleep with me laughing down in the kitchen. Sadly, Stuart died last year and Saturday morning just isn't the same. It is empty without the laughter. So, I share his stories and I hope that they make you laugh, also.
RIP Stuart McLean, gone but NEVER forgotten!

Thank you herchelle, what a nice surprise :)
The book, which looks very enjoyable, arrived this morning along with a chatty postcard and some bookmarks (you'll have to explain the flat, crochet looking one to me).
Many thanks.

I've been reading this one for a while, picking it up between other books to read a story or two. The stories range from quite dark to quite amusing, with a bit of everything in between. A good read.
Like an old friend who's turned up in town, Stuart McLean returns with Stories from the Vinyl Cafe, his bestselling collection of tales based on his enormously popular Vinyl Cafe radio program. The collection features Canada's much-loved fictional family: Dave, Morley, Stephanie and Sam. Stories from the Vinyl Cafe also introduces a host of other wonderfully imagined characters, such as Margaret Dwyer, a suburban housewife who startles herself by shoplifting a pepperoni sausage, and Flora Perriton, who is consumed with thoughts of lost opportunities when an old friend passes away. Then there's Ed, who-overcome by the death of his favourite rock star-embarks on a pilgrimage to New York City to meet the singer's widow.
As always, the stories in this rewarding and irreverent collection prove that Stuart McLean is indeed a national treasure.
