Monster in a Box is a monologue originally performed live on stage by the writer Spalding Gray then subsequently made into a 1992 film starring Gray and directed by Nick Broomfield.[1]
A follow-up to Gray's earlier work, Swimming to Cambodia,[2] the work consists of a long-form monologue by Gray detailing the trials and tribulations he encountered while writing his first novel, Impossible Vacation.[1]
The soundtrack for the film was composed by Laurie Anderson.[1]
A book version of the monologue was published in 1992.[3]
