____________________________________Calling Miller to account
________-easy for this old coot to talk about being hungry
screw that is what i say being hungry is no fun.... and i doubt it loosens anything like even a cog, from the so-named system he refers to..
I want to prevent as many men as possible from pretending that they have to do this or that because they must earn a living. It is not true. One can starve to death- it is much better

Henry Miller, Tropic of Capricorn
________________________Easy for Henry Miller to say ! Now that he's dead! hahaha Did he reprieve himself? I am not even sure of that. I liked him for years. I still do, and I think he was a blithe spirit but a nasty smart ass at times and not above cynicism or rancor.
His attack on James Joyce and Joyce's Ulysses is one of the meanest hearted ones I ever read by anyone anywhere. Normally people don't attack Joyce, if they don't like him, they just don't read him.
Anyhow, it was after reading that I got suspicious of this one man Capricorn Cancer Black Spring Nexus Plexus Rosy Crucifixion bantering BrooklynIte and his outrageous claims.
To attack Joyce is crazy at any time. , because Joyce has made everything possible
His work has opened and continues to open every door , every word every eye and ear.
Joyce's work , which consists of the whole range of genres , is an ever inviting stream a brook that suggests points, hints, promotes, winks,
