 Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2008 4:34 pm Post subject: Henry Miller was against it
|

| Miller wrote among the first serious essays on the subject. It was titled "Reading in the Toilet" (what a surprise) and after stating his opposition he goes on to suggest and recommend works and subject matter appropriate, and inappropriate, to the setting. And though I am dubious about the copyright fairness of Google Books, I'll mention that if you google that title in quotes and follow it with Henry Miller in your query string, it looks like you can read the whole essay online! |
