Quiet Days in Clichy / The World of Sex

Two of Miller’s shorter works, published in 1956 and 1956 by the Olympia Press in Paris as part of the Traveller’s Companion Series. Quiet Days in Clichy, a rewrite by Miller of a 1940 piece, gives the account of men in the Paris suburb, their conversations and travels, and, for a short work, rather many of the women they meet. The World of Sex is not a story, but rather a long essay by Miller presenting his views on this singularly important aspect of the human condition.
