...Dada of the sex revolution apparently keeps his own bunnies and when not chatting or nuzzling the cleavage of some visiting beauty, plays a steady defense game of Zen Ping Pong. This is a good example of coffee-table autobiography. It offers reproductions of Miller's corrected manuscript pages, and eight full-page color plates of the master's own sentimental paintings...

When Lesser says that he and Irene have fallen in love, Spearmint assaults a flaking wall with his head and moans, "I forgot to go on hating you." Later he burns Lesser's unfinished manuscript and writes graffiti with its ashes...
