I believe the events happened, or could have happened. But his way of telling about these events is both unique to him and literary." A few years before his death, Miller came across the original outline for Tropic of Cancer at a friend's house. Apparently an amazing document and probably worthy of some critical perusal. Miller's prose certainly doesn't compare to Joyce's, but both had courage. I would again like to suggest that courage is, in and of itself, subversive. --- from list phillitcrit-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
