Synopsis
One of Miller's earliest books,and considered to be the second in the Tropics trilogy, this is a collection of short sketches by a young Henry Miller using the mature writer's voice that makes him such a powerful speaker. With pieces like "The Angel is My Watermark", a hilarious self-portrait of Miller in Paris suffering an excess of artistic inspiration, to a tender reminiscence of his father's New York tailor shop, this book contains a side to Henry Miller rarely seen through the publicity but known to his careful readers; a side that is philosophical, spiritual, and funny. It remains one of Miller's best and most enduring books.

About the Author
Henry Miller (1891-1980) was an American writer whose novels were notable for their breaking with literary conventions, and also for their frankness about sex, with the result that many of his works were banned in the U.S. on the grounds of obscenity.
