Sextet by Henry Miller (EPUB)

Description

The best of Miller’s chapbooks bound into a single roaring volume. Resembling a musical sextet where no two instruments are the same, but all instruments blend to form a single sound, Henry Miller’s Sextet combines six jive-talkin’, fresh, and impromptu pieces of writing originally published as individual chapbooks by Capra Press: “On Turning Eighty,” “Reflections on the Death of Mishima,” “First Impressions of Greece,” “The Waters Reglitterized: The Subject of Water Colors in Some of its More Liquid Phases,” “Reflections on The Maurizius Case: A Humble Appraisal of a Great Book,” and “Mother, China and the World Beyond: A Dream in Which I Die and Find Myself in Devachan (Limbo) Where I Run into My Mother whom I Hated All My Life.” Like your favorite band releasing a six-song EP to keep you salivating until its next full-length album, Sextet is a finger-snapping sample of Miller’s work with the blare of a clarion call, and lots of raucous humor and jazz.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This charming book, a collection of six essays by the incomparable Henry Miller, is an uplifting and mind altering jaunt through time and the mind. The opening piece, On Turning Eighty, shows a mind that is crackling sharp and a wit that has been gaining momentum continuously through life. Is anyone out there getting older? Take this one to heart. Other essays on the controversial Japanese artist, Mishima, and his grizzley suicide, may turn you around on the subjects of making art and the sacrifices that requires of an individual. First Impressions of Greece, will have you packing your bags. The Waters Reglitterized explores Miller’s life long obsession with water colors, and gives the reader a candid look at a thought process great artists employ when approaching their craft. This little book is a terrific introduction to a controversial writer who, while known for his writings on sex and his discordian/anarchistic leanings, had a much greater scope and understanding in many areas of life he has yet to be given credit for. A gentle man. A great mind. A terrific read. Enjoy.
