"The publication of The Journals of Spalding Gray is a significant event in American arts and letters. . . . This is not only a great book, it's an important book." --Michael Cunningham, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Hours
"A document of wrenching and exhilarating honesty, shot through with unremitting humor and irony." -Daphne Merkin, Bookforum "Gray comes across as a genuinely noble, striving, seeking soul, felled by a malignant fate. . . . [His] work deserves to last." --Ron Rosenbaum, The New York Times Book Review "The Journals of Spalding Gray tell an important story that is painful to read but hard to put down. They bring you into a mind that is original and uncensoring even as it careens off the rails into deep destruction. Gray's complex moods, dark imagination, and wit are often disturbing and deeply moving." --Kay Redfield Jamison, author of An Unquiet Mind [set off in color or bold or something]Riveting, funny, heartbreaking, at once raw and lyrical: these journals reveal the extraordinary inner life of the actor-writer who invented the autobiographical monologue and perfected the form in such celebrated works as Swimming to Cambodia.
Begun when he was twenty-five, Spalding Gray's journals reflect on his childhood; his craving for success; the downtown New York arts scene of the 1970s; his love affairs, marriages, and fatherhood; his travels in Europe and Asia; and throughout, his passion for the theater, where he worked to balance his compulsion to tell all with his fear of having his deepest secrets exposed. The Journals of Spalding Gray gives us a haunting portrait of a creative genius who we thought had told us everything about himself—until now.
