"I believe that today, more than ever, a book should be sought after even if it has only one great page in it. We must search for fragments, splinters, toenails, anything that has ore in it, anything that is capable of resuscitating the body and the soul.
Henry Miller, Tropic of Capricorn

#FierceFeb Day 16: Henry Miller was definitely asking #IsThisDesire as he wrote this sensuous trilogy that I am hoping I will get to read for our #ContoursOfLove reading theme at GatheringBooks til end of March, but I doubt I‘d be able to. Good intentions count for something though, I believe.

Desearía haber encontrado éste libro hace 5 años. Todo lo que hubiera aprendido.

"The river is called Death and it has a bitter taste. I have waded through it many times, up to the hips, but somehow I have neither been petrified nor immortalized. I am still burning brightly inside, though outwardly dead as a planet."

Read this with my book club because of it's historical significance: it was banned and labeled pornography and was argued in the Supreme Court. It was hard to read as a woman. I understand why it is worthy but it was not my cup of tea.
