He suddenly marries his longtime companion, and divorces her just as quickly; he moves in with his girlfriend, Kathie, who bears him a son; and he learns, against all odds, to ski. But not even his mastery of the much-feared right turn can prepare him for the exhilarating experience of fatherhood. A brilliant improvisation with as many twists and turns as a double-diamond course, \u003ci\u003eIt's a Slippery Slope\u003c\/i\u003e explores how one man survives a mid-life crisis by finding his balance on skis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Spalding Gray\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Farrar, Straus and Giroux\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.74h x 5.78w x 0.32d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780374525231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/07\/1997 pg. 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/1997 pg. 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/1997 pg. 1003\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1997 pg. 51\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/12\/1997 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWriter and actor \u003cb\u003eSpalding Gray\u003c\/b\u003e was best known for writing and starring in autobiographical monologues like \u003ci\u003eSwimming to Cambodia\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMonster in a Box\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eIt's a Slippery Slope\u003c\/i\u003e where he humorously integrated his anxieties and experiences into stage performances.
