The Tao of Bill Murray: Real-Life Stories of Joy, Enlightenment, and Party Crashing

For the Bill Murray fan in all of us, this epic collection ofÂ â€œBill Murray storiesâ€â€”many reported for the first time hereâ€”distills a set of guiding principles out of hisÂ extraordinary ability to infuse the everyday with surprise, absurdity, and wonder.

No one will ever believe you.

New York Times bestselling author Gavin Edwards, like the rest of us, has always been fascinated with Bill Murrayâ€”in particular the beloved actorâ€™s adventures off-screen, which rival his filmography for sheer entertainment value. Edwards traveled to the places where Murray has lived, worked, and partied, in search of the most outrageous and hilarious Bill Murray stories from the past four decades, many of which have never before been reported. Bill once paid a child five dollars to ride his bike into a swimming pool. The star convinced Harvardâ€™s JV womenâ€™s basketball team to play with him in a private game of hoops. Many of these surreal encounters ended with Bill whispering, â€œNo one will ever believe youâ€ into a strangerâ€™s ear. But The Tao of Bill Murray is more than just a collection of wacky anecdotes. A sideways mix of comedy and philosophy, full of photo bombs, late-night party crashes, and movie-set antics, this is the perfect book for anyone who calls themselves a Bill Murray fanâ€”which is to say, everyone.
