Henry Miller’s  Miscellanea consists of 8 short pieces from the 20’s and 30’s including his “commandments” a list of 11 items that not only presents a fantastic insight into Miller’s self-reflective thoughts, but they reveal a man countering his own anxious writer demons.

Description: Hard bound, no dust jacket.  Original cream-colored pictorial boards printed in red and black. #125 in a limited edition of 500 printed copies signed by Bern. The boards show some minor foxing. Signed at the preface by Bern Porter and with a canceled holograph postcard from Miller to Bern inserted through slits in page 43. Miller was unable to provide the full 500 postcards that Bern required, (as each was hand made by Miller) so an unspecified number were issued without the holograph. Printed at the Greenwood Press. A Rare item with an original  Miller Holograph!
