Extracts from Orpheus in Brooklyn (Orphism, Rimbaud and Henry Miller) by Bertrand Mathieu Mouton ed. : "The image of Orpheus is clearly the mythopoeic backbone and support of Miller's entire output as a writer." "Like Rimbaud before him, Miller obligingly apes the homicidal fury of the war enthusiasts and goons whom he is ridiculing with such heavy-handed sarcasm." "One of the reasons Henry Miller was so deeply impressed with Rimbaud is that the great French illuminé had the awsome daring to wish for the actualization of his quasi-heroic vision of the Absolute in the realm of everyday life."
