The companion piece, of sorts, to Gray's novel Impossible Vacation (which I think is a complete waste of time), this is my favorite transcription of one of his monologues.

Matt had Spalding Gray sign this book in 1999 when we stumbled across a book signing in LA. Now I feel motivated to read more of his monologues.
