Bored to Death - audiobook

The basis for the HBO Original Series starring Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover), and Ted Danson, Bored to Death is a Raymond Chandleresque tale of a struggling Brooklyn writercuriously named Jonathan Ameswho, in a moment of odd whimsy and boredom, becomes a private detective after spontaneously posting an ad on craigslist. As a rank amateur who just thinks he can help, this Ames alter ego quickly becomes embroiled in the search for a missing NYU coed. He moves from one scrape to the next, all while trying to escape a life of periodic alcoholism, dead-end relationships, writers block, and hours of Internet backgammon. Bored to Death was originally published in McSweeneys Issue 24 and is the centerpiece of Amess collection of essays and fiction, The Double Life Is Twice as Good.
