Fiction. Gillis as only Gillis can: the politics of love, human action as theater, and the dreams we dream and chase forever. THE CONSEQUENCE OF SKATING, Gillis' fourth novel, blends politics, drama, ice skating, mountain climbing, the music industry and world affairs--not to mention artificial intelligence and G.O.D.--to create an inimitable tour de force. Centering on Mickey Greene, an actor who has fallen from grace, the novel follows Mick as he maneuvers through a series of adventures that set him on a course of reconstructing his life in a way he never before imagined.
