Henry Miller and How He Got That Way
Brings Henry Miller back to the critical attention that his work deserves as well as making an original contribution to literary discussion on intertextuality.
Nothing But the Marvelous
Nothing But The Marvelous (Expanded) Wisdoms of Henry Miller Henry Miller and Blair Fielding (editor) A gathering of Henry Miller's insights-memorable and revealing, profound and profane, angry and joyous, poetic and philosophical-covering a multitude of subjects, from "Aging" to "Universal Law."

Miller's Rules
English Mason wants the good life, and he's striven for it since birth. Now he's within a year of graduating from a top university and marrying his sweetheart of seven years. Big Six accounting firms have begun contacting him.Enter Miller Dispenberg, English's lifelong friend and roommate throughout college. He's a brilliant pre-law student with an eye for the hidden and an insatiable appetite for intrigue, his taste for the edge matched only by his capacity for deception. English and Miller become embroiled in the illusory world of a closely-watched senate race, where betrayal, sex, and bribery are all common currency, where nothing is what it seems and everything—principle, loyalty, even life—has a price. It's a chance for Miller to climb into a stratum he's eyed for years, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to get there. But for English, who learns that the strongest force in the world is human desire, it's a time that tests his core and pushes him to determine what matters most. Amidst the murders and the cover-ups hangs the life he so carefully crafted, and the only way out may be the worst of all. . .
The Year of Reading Dangerously
An editor and writer's vivaciously entertaining, and often moving, chronicle of his year-long adventure with fifty great books (and two not-so-great ones)—a true story about reading that reminds us why we should all make time in our lives for books. Nearing his fortieth birthday, author and critic Andy Miller realized he's not nearly as well read as he'd like to be. A devout book lover who somehow fell out of the habit of reading, he began to ponder the power of books to change an individual life—including his own—and to the define the sort of person he would like to be. Beginning with a copy of Bulgakov's Master and Margarita that he happens to find one day in a bookstore, he embarks ...

Durrell-Miller Letters, 1935-1980
In 1935 a young Englishman living on Corfu wrote enthusiastically to a middle-aged Brooklynite who had just published a succes de scandale in Paris: ... Tropic [of Cancer] turns the corner into a new life which has regained its bowels." Henry Miller, realizing that in Lawrence Durrell he had hooked his ideal reader, responded: "You're the first Britisher who's written me an intelligent letter about the book." Thus began a correspondence that ended only with Miller's death in 1980 - nearly 1,000,000 words later. The Durrell-Miller Letters, 1935-80 contains an extensive and representative selection of the total correspondence. Almost half of the present volume has never been published before, including some recently recovered "lost" letters; in addition, many passages expurgated from letters published in 1963 have been restored. Editor Ian S. MacNiven of the State University of New York, Maritime College, is quite right to regard the Durrell-Miller correspondence as a dual biography of the creative lives of two of this century'sgreat literary iconoclasts, a biography "At once as serious as Schopenhauer and as winning as wine." "

The Henry Miller Reader
A collection of works spanning the entire career of great 20th-century American writer Henry Miller, edited and introduced by Lawrence Durrell. In 1958, when Henry Miller was elected to membership in the American Institute of Arts and Letters, the citation described him as: "The veteran author of many books whose originality and richness of technique are matched by the variety and daring of his subject matter. His boldness of approach and intense curiosity concerning man and nature are unequalled in the prose literature of our times." It is most fitting that this anthology of "the best" of Henry Miller should have been assembled by one of the first among Miller’s contemporaries to recogniz...
