I'm trying to get into Tropic of Cancer. I started working with the Henry Miller Library recently, so it only seemed right.

My difficulty with it lies in the lack of structure. Which is really, really wierd for me. When it comes to film or music, I'm all about the wierd experiments, odd structures... so here I thought it would be great. And he's a truly wonderful author, he oozes poetry, his words are magical.

But After pages and pages.... I wish there was some kind of plot to actually hook me. When I get pas the poetry and wonderful phrasing, I really like to have some depth of character to hold on to. In a story I kind of have to wonder what happens next. With Tropic of Cancer, it's total chaos. Maybe if I took up weed again?

It's kind of embarrassing too. I do have to finish it. My producer lent me the book, and he's a lit. scholar. I feel like not finishing it would diminish me in his eyes... lol... oh man...
