A Gathering to learn more about and discuss Miller

In October of 2025, from Oct. 16 to Oct. 19, Nexus and the Henry Miller Memorial Library will have a conference at Asilomar in Pacific Grove with an excursion to the Henry Miller Memorial Library in Big Sur—Henry Miller in the 21st Century.  We will examine Miller in light of today’s thinking, asking the question: Is Henry Miller relevant today? A meeting of scholars and fans. Scholarships will be available. 

Henry Miller’s  work has affected modern literature, censorship and freedom of speech.

Meals are included with lodging when you book through this web site. If you book a room at Asilomar separate from our link, it will not include the meals and you will pay a higher registration fee.

Sponsored by The Henry Miller Memorial Library

The Library is the former home of Emil White who was one of Henry Miller’s closest friends and confidants.Since its inception, the Library has hosted hundreds of live events, including concerts featuring local acts as well as nationally renowned performers like Philip Glass, Patti Smith and Laurie Anderson; fashion shows, open mics, poetry readings, theatrical productions, free art and music classes, and an acclaimed international short film screening series. By producing such events, the Library aims to channel Henry’s admonition to “develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music—the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people.” We hope to infuse this spirit in the symposium celebrating Henry’s legacy.

The International Henry Miller Journal

Roger Jackson and James Decker developed the idea for Nexus: The International Henry Miller Journal at the 2002 International Lawrence Durrell Society’s On Miracle Ground XII conference in Ottawa, Ontario. Jackson and Decker conceived of the journal as a way to encourage writing on Miller, help fill in gaps in Miller scholarship, and unveil previously unpublished and rarely seen Miller manuscripts, articles, and documents. Jackson and Decker also desired to create a point of connection nationally and internationally among those interested in Miller, by having a central organization to answer questions, offer suggestions, and provide contact information among interested parties.
