Extreme Vinyl Café

by Stuart McLean

Penguin Group Canada | October 1, 2009 | Hardcover

If you ask them, Dave and Morley''s friends will tell you that no matter how long you''ve known people, they can still surprise you.

After all, no one expects to see a grown man dive into the trunk of his car to chase a rat. And despite what they may claim, few people are actually prepared to have their backyard, never mind their twelve-year-old son, shoot to stardom on YouTube''s Most Watched Videos. And yes the sight of an 87-year-old bungee-jumping off a cruise ship is...unusual. But well-wishers at the Vinyl Cafe will advise you to be philosophical about such things.

No matter who sends a volley of nails through your truck window, which mannequin is disrobed or how green your skin turns when your mom leaves town, life marches on. In Extreme Vinyl Cafe bestselling author Stuart McLean regales us with the wild impulses, and extreme behaviours of Canada''s favourite characters at the Vinyl Cafe.

    I love Stuart McLean. Dave and Morley are real people to me, they are so vividly imagined. Gentle humour, very understanding of human foibles.
