Pia's Nest: McSweeney's for your iPod.

August 18, 2008

McSweeney's for your iPod.

(Or other audio appliance.) McSweeney's recently hooked up with emusic to release stories from past issues read by their authors. The second CD - McSweeney's Field Recordings: Sweet Nothings and Essential Slow Jams, features the voices of Sheila Heti, Ben Ehrenreich, Tony d'Souza, Chris Bachelder, and me, reading our stories in natural settings. For mine, I sat on the sea wall at Lake Pontchartrain, water lapping at my feet and earth movers at my back because the Corps is adding 8 more feet of hurricane protection.

My friend Jack Pendarvis' funny story, "The Big Dud," can be found on the first McSweeney's Audiobook and if you haven't heard Jack read, well, I promise you'll laugh out loud. If you think the woman's voice sounds like Joey Lauren Adams, you're correct.
