Miller, Henry

The World of Sex (vintage adult paperback, 1967)

California: Collectors Publications, 1967. Vintage adult paperback, the publishers producing high-volume text fiction line of books, this being a special title by a known author. Miller wrote this in Big Sur, California. A book where, according to Hugo Heyrman, "Miller seeks to set the record straight and argues that there is no contradiction between his salacious novels and his philosophy. Throughout his pamphlet, Miller makes liberal use of raw language to narrate his own experiences as a young man and formulate his philosophical conclusions. Motivated both by a mischievous desire to shock and by a candid endeavor to to achieve a crude and precise language, Miller triumphs thanks to his entertaining and seductive enthusiasm." Very Good, moderate rubbing & toning. For mature, consenting audiences. [Book ID 125363]
