Description

Wildly original novelist, essayist, and performance artist Jonathan Aames delivers his best collection yet a hilarious, risque, and loveable selection of articles, essays, and fiction, including several previously unpublished pieces.With an HBO pilot based on this collection s centerpiece ( Bored to Death ), his two hilarious novels, The Extra Man and Wake Up, Sir!, in development as films (with screenplays by Mr. Ames), a critically acclaimed graphic novel, The Alcoholic, under his belt, and an ongoing series of literary and not-so-literary stunts, Jonathan Ames has proven himself to be a writer of diverse and stunning talents. In The Double Life Is Twice as Good, fans will be treated to a deft and charming compilation of Ames s journalism, personal essays, and short fiction. Featuring illuminating profiles of Marilyn Manson and Lenny Kravitz, his adventures at a goth festival in the Midwest, a story written for Esquire on a napkin, as well as a comic strip collaboration with graphic artist Nick Bertozzi, Ames s unique style and personality-driven humor shines throughout this wickedly funny collection. Also included is the aforementioned short story, Bored to Death, a Raymond Chandler esque tale about a struggling writer-turned-detective who becomes quickly embroiled in the search for a missing college co-ed. Described by The Portland Oregonian as an edgier David Sedaris, it s no wonder that this comic mastermind s already fervent and dedicated fanbase is continually growing."
