Henry Miller writes with a buoyancy andbrimming energy that are infectious. He has a fine touch for comedy. But this is also a serious book - the testament of a free spirit who has broken through the restraints and clichés of modern life to find within himself his own kind of paradise.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eHenry Miller (1891 - 1980) was one of the most controversial American novelists during his lifetime.
