Features: Henry Miller was a controversial writer who always evoked extreme emotions in his readers. Those who loved him adored him to the death, and those who hated him hated him just as intensely. Whether it was extreme love or hatred, no one could ignore him. "Now I am no longer lonely, in the worst case, God is with me." This is a collection of autobiographical novels by Henry Miller. The theme of the work is to show people the true circumstances of the author himself. The writer regarded this as his own "self-portrait." In Henry Miller's view, the true self lies not only in external experiences but also more importantly in one's various feelings, sensations, free thoughts, and dreams and hallucinations. Thus, the work is composed of a large number of surreal dreams, diverse symbols, and stream-of-consciousness recollections of the past. Apart from the magical artistic expression, the writer's persistent pursuit of a spiritual homeland in dreams is equally moving.
