I need to get more into his work. I always assumed he was a Kerouac/Burroughs type, but now that I've actually read about him, Miller is definitely more of a "dirtbag left" type.
Idk exactly what he did wrong, but Miller was married about 5 times, each time to women much younger than him, and he was an early 20th century straight male who fucked around, so I'm sure there's some MeToo type stuff going on.

Miller was active in the Socialist Party USA as a young man, and he was a big fan of Hubert Harrison, an extremely influential black socialist.
