A Goodreads user asked Arthur Hoyle:

Arthur, What drew you towards Henry Miller, and have you read any of the many titles Henry mentions within his body of work?

Arthur Hoyle I was drawn by Miller's voice, by his candor and truthfulness about himself and his experience of life. Also by his flexible style, which he could alter to suit his mood. I've read Dostoevsky, Thoreau, Strindberg, Swift, Krishnamurti, some Buddhist texts. Tried reading Seraphita by Balzac but got bogged down in it.
