For some time now, writer-actor-performance artist Spalding Gray has been carrying around with him a monster: a manuscript of a novel called Impossible Vacation, a book that at last sighting weighed in at about 1,800 pages. Monster in a Box is a guided tour between the stations of his writing block, which include a field trip to Nicaragua, a disastrous guest appearance at the Moscow film festival, and a stint in Los Angeles hunting down the fabled few who have never written a screenplay.

People who make you laugh shouldn't be allowed to kill themselves. It isn't right. It spoils everything. Spalding Gray I utterly resent you doing this and I will never read anything you wrote again. Sorry, but.

So, when I received a surprise package from the UK recently - there are some lovely things about the goodreads community, aren't there? - and one of them was this film, I looked at it with trepidation for a week before making myself watch. I'm really pleased I did: observing Spalding's monologues has got to be the best way of experiencing them.

This is a real treat.

But I shall never forgive you, Spalding and I still won't ever ever read anything more by you, including the books I had sitting on my shelves, saving them up for some moment when they would have made me happy. They can't do that now. Just so as you know, you are no longer on my shelves. You live at the charity shop on Bridport St Albert Park. I hope that makes you happy. ( )
