Quiet Days in Clichy

<p>'Here, even if I had a thousand dollar in my pocket, I know of no sight which could arouse in me the feeling of ecstasy' <p>Looking back to Henry Miller's bohemian life in 1930s Paris, when he was an obscure, penniless writer, <i>Quiet Days in Clichy</i> is a love letter to a city. As he describes nocturnal wanderings through shabby Montmartre streets, cafés and bars, sexual liaisons and volatile love affairs, Miller brilliantly evokes a period that would shape his entire life and oeuvre. <p>'His writing is flamboyant, torrential, chaotic, treacherous, and dangerous' Anaïs Nin</p>
