at 8 wing trenton from 2005 to 2008 since 1998 stuart toured with the vinyl cafe to theatres across canada and the united states playing towns from st john s newfoundland to whitehorse in the yukon from bangor maine to seattle washington stuart mclean passed away february 15th 2017 at age 68 mcmaster university is the home of stuart mclean s extensive personal and literary archive the genre this volume consists of 19 fictitious short stories the main characters as in other vinyl cafe volumes are a family of four dave and morley and their two children stephanie and sam the stories focus on among other subjects husband wife and sibling relationships growing up aging death grief change historical tidbits mclean had the incredible gift of describing the beauty the preciousness the holiness of life in what others would regard as boring mundane and far too ordinary insightful examples motherhood she morley thought as she stood there between the display racks of men s underwear was a poorly planned journey it wasn t a sailing trip it was more like a race p 4 morley s thought while buying underwear for her growing son sam there are moments in every life when things change forever p 59 an observation in the context of an aging shopkeeper and sam growing up and taking on more responsibility jimmy walker from newfoundland loved to share tidbits of history that were forgotten by most people well the thing is that margarine was outlawed across the dominion of canada soon after confederation p 115 jimmy then told folks how newfoundlanders would smuggle it into halifax commenting on the reality of children becoming more independent and parents needing to accept this reality mclean shares the following insight in the story home alone it s a tricky thing to negotiate the war of independence both side approach the battlefield full of righteous conviction but righteousness always conceals uncertainty and conviction is never far from doubt p 172 in the short story crushed photographer tommy stephanie s boyfriend took pictures of crushed wildlife run over by vehicles people thought they were artistic and poetic however tommy and dave said they made them feel sad they didn t regard them as beautiful as some did then mclean observes like poetry you can find beauty in the most unexpected places in a snowy wood and on the wings of butterfly yes of course but in sorrow as well as in happiness in death as well as in life p 259 i ll tell you what i think said tommy i think it means that beauty trumps morality i don t think it should be like that that s the way of the world p 260 humour mclean includes some humorous stories in this volume my favourite one is yoga it is absolutely hilarious daughter stephanie had planned on a yoga retreat with her friend becky however becky cancelled out stephanie then asked if her mother morley would go with her she had a previous commitment so by default her dad dave went with her the retreat had three categories gentle intermediate and vigorous stephanie chose intermediate and dave chose vigorous the attendees were given three treatments to choose from as part of the retreat dave chose happy hour three honey mint refresh colonic cocktails for this reviewer yoga was almost worth the price of the book filed under reviews tagged with book book review canadian literature fiction literature short stories
