Description

In Henry Miller and Narrative Form: Constructing the Self, Rejecting Modernity, James M. Decker challenges the idea that Henry Miller's writing lacks structure. Rather than viewing his work as formless, Decker presents Miller as a stylistic pioneer who deserves a permanent place in the American literary canon. This scholarly study examines Miller's unique 'spiral form,' a method of writing that uses radical digressions to move between realism and the fantastic. By analyzing famous texts such as Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, as well as works like Moloch and Nexus, the book provides a deep look into Miller's specific aesthetic theories. Readers will find a detailed analysis that uses various narratological and critical sources to explain Miller's complex style. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in English literature, literary theory, and the evolution of modern narrative structures.
