Through the Airwaves


One of my very first posts on this blog was about Jonathan Ames. Later, our book club read his novel Wake Up, Sir!. Now from Variety comes word that a screenplay by Ames has gotten the go-ahead from HBO and will soon be shot as a pilot. According to the newspaper, Bored to Death "will center on a Brooklyn writer who nurses a painful breakup by acting out his dream to live as a character out of a Raymond Chandler novel."

I may have to get a television.--David E
