| Miller and unidentified opponent |
There are people who go through their whole lives without ever meeting or even glimpsing a celebrity of any stripe ~ and probably not caring. There are people who end up being celebrities themselves ~ and possibly not caring. And then there are those people who live next door to a celebrity ~ and they have to care. They have to because all of a sudden, they find themselves answering the door to strangers who want to know what it's like. And if the neighbor is author Henry Miller and you're a kid, you and your friends use the backyard swing to get intermittent glimpses of the adults sunbathing naked on the other side of the fence (and you believe your mom when she tells you you wouldn't like his books because they're full of math): http://www.lamag.com/longform/the-iconoclast-next-door/
