Book Description

August 1, 2004
Two of Miller's shorter works, published in 1956 and 1956 by the Olympia Press in Paris as part of the Traveller's Companion Series. Quiet Days in Clichy, a rewrite by Miller of a 1940 piece, gives the account of men in the Paris suburb, their conversations and travels, and, for a short work, rather many of the women they meet. The World of Sex is not a story, but rather a long essay by Miller presenting his views on this singularly important aspect of the human condition.

This review is from: Quiet Days in Clichy/The World of Sex (Paperback)
If you've never read any of Miller's work, this is a nice way to start. It features an easy to read story and yet as deep as Miller's work is. But look for another print, it says paperback but feels like an ordinary magazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Miller, a true artist and marvelous human being., March 16, 2005

This review is from: Quiet Days in Clichy/The World of Sex (Paperback)
Quiet Days in Clichy represents the pinacle of Miller's career as a writer.
In it we can found all his style, his mind and his history.
It has been for many years my Book of Hours. I never feel tired of reading this wonderful masterwork.
Respect to The World of Sex I only will say that it contains his undestanding of life, love and sex. A very important book for whose that share his Weltanschauung.
Ludovicus
