Reviews
Ditrich presents a fresh, gonzo voice in his debut novel, a quirky tale of the down side of life and a promise of redemption in a narrative that is entertaining., A fantastic adventure in small town Canada, filled with unexpected big dreams. It's funny, it's honest, and as the saying goes, 'Be careful what you wish for'., Vince Ditrich is a thunderous musician, and one heck of a storyteller. I'd recommend strapping in tight for this book... and you might want to wear a helmet too!, Vince has such a way with words. They slap you every now and again. I felt like I was there with Vicar, shoveling life into my head like it was my last day on the planet. I was sad when this book came to an end., The Liquor Vicar is beautiful chaos. Ditrich's characters come alive with all the complexity of a Shakespearean comedy and a uniquely Canadian dry wit. Colourful characters carry this story like a current, moving seamlessly from side-splitting humour to tenderness as it explores our human desire for relevance and purpose., A very entertaining read, with a cast of characters that feel like you've met before. The Liquor Vicar is full of the troubled and broken hearted, but Ditrich finds depth and honesty, and most centrally the humour in these intersecting lives. A great debut., The Liquor Vicar is like a weekend I have always wanted to have. Filled with fun, crazy people on an adventure that no one could imagine. Well, no one other than Vince, I guess. Turns out one of my favourite drummers will become one of my favourite novelists, too. Ain't life grand that way?, Vince conjures the gonzo spirit of his small-town Vancouver Island characters and wraps them in the uniquely outrageous beauty and ramshackle cultural norms of the region. His protagonist is just the kind of hilariously rudderless, obsessive, self-absorbed, curmudgeonly, and deftly pure hearted person who settles into those bucolic surroundings. The Liquor Vicar is a twentieth-century pop quiz slap in the face at every turn. It's way too much fun., Vince Ditrich's debut book The Liquor Vicar is a hit. How do I know? My kids stole my copy. I can hear them laughing from here., The Liquor Vicar is an energetic romp through a closet community on the Island, populated by well-drawn characters and strewn with more references to pop culture and euphemisms than you can shake a stick at., I laughed -- really hard. In my experience drummers tend to be outrageously funny people. Ditrich lends evidence to this observation -- a superb drummer and a supremely funny writer. His novel is loaded with, to quote the book, 'exotic descriptors gratuitously diacritical and absent of meaning'. It had me doubled over with laughter.", With fiery, brilliant, and often hilarious wordplay, Vince Ditrich brings us Tony Vicar, a voice so clear he may in fact exist -- and either way we pray he does, stumbling along with his discombobulated entourage. The adventures of the Liquor Vicar have just begun, and the Pacific Northwest is the richer for it.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.
