Because people don’t appreciate the giants of literature anymore nor the beauty of books where a writer’s soul is laid bare?

As Miller says in the film (43:07), "the neurotic of today is the man of the future." Time moves on, generations die off and new ones are born, evolve and engage the world with different mindsets, see it with other eyes, describe it with different words. Old things, what previous generations thought profound, ideas once considered important evaporate into the mists of time, longings, values that 50 or 100 years ago appeared vital and foundational lose relevancy, value, importance. What was once considered highly questionable, pornographic, obscene and even threatening now seems quaint, naive, laughable, not even worth the effort to raise an eyebrow. Great books, great writers, although still profound & great, are no longer read by folks who are too impatient to read anything longer than a tweet. Besides, back in the day if a book sold 20,000 copies it was considered a success and overdue for another print run. 💪

A thrill to see this personal glimpse into the real Henry Miller. Fred Ward did him justice in Henry and June (1990).

I’ve own and have read all of his books but before today had never heard the man speak. This was a great listen, thank you.

Fascinating insight into a man not taken seriously for so many years of his early literary career. Bukowski. Kerouac. Miller. Chronicalers extraordinaire! Very enlightening. Thanks for uploading

Isnt it interesting how we always come back to these three... Maybe Thomas Wolfe and DH Lawrence should also be mentioned to complete the scene... 🎉❤😅

A nice slice of literary history caught in celluloid like creatures from bygone eras preserved in amber. Miller is a great raconteur, often making his point with more immediate emotional impact when telling a story in person on film than even in much of what he wrote.

He doesn't write, he sings, with the filth and the stench and the chaos kicking in his senses to become immortal.

I believe the fringe class hold cards. Imagine the debtor who realizes he is in over his head. He discovers only after he is unable to keep up that the debt could have been cleared very simply. Instead he is protested and harassed to no end and learns his sin is now the error of the leader of our country. That every time he eats it -- he loses. That is how not to approach a problem. You will always wonder who it is going to come out of next?

Почему? Она выдержана в том же стиле, что и в "Записках из подполья"... единственное, что здесь добавлено, - это поток сознания.
