"Henry Miller didn't need New York. He didn't
need a creative writing grant. All he needed was a typewriter and a portable
radio, a Jake leg press to get him started, an open letter to all and
sundry.
He took it from there. Him and his readers. Him and his readers and his publishers." Jack Saunders |
| A collection of essays about Henry Miller edited by Jim Haynes and published by Handshake Editions, Paris in 1980. |
