~ Standard Hardcover Son of A Critch: A Childish Newfoundland Memoir A hilarious and heartfelt story about Newfoundland, family, being the weirdest kid in school, getting into trou ble, and finding one's place in the world . . . Best known as the Roving Reporter' from CBC's 'This Hour Has 22 Minutes,' Mark Critch is known for his televised antics, but as readers will see in this playful debut, he's been causing trouble his whole life, Son of A Critch captures the wonder and cluelessness of a kid trying to figure things out, but with the clever observations gleaned from adulthood. “There are so many strengths to Critch's writing but I’d note his flair with metaphor and simile. This is nimble, nuanced writing; thoughtful and honed for laughs.” -- The St. John’s Telegram Show more
