Henry Valentine Miller (December 26 1891 – June 7 1980) was an American writer and painter. He was known for breaking with existing literary forms and developing a new sort of "novel" that is a mixture of novel autobiography social criticism philosophical reflection surrealist free association and mysticism one that is distinctly always about and expressive of the real-life Henry Miller and yet is also fictional.
