Has anyone read these? I know they're considered literature now, but I wasn't able to get into them when I tried in college. (I might be more patient now.) How do they hold up today?

I enjoyed it (and I'm a big fan of Henry Miller, as well) - they were lovers and friends at one time. Her erotica is very poetic and dreamy (in my opinion), as are her writings in general.
Before her erotica, I had read
Ladders to Fire,
A Spy in the House of Love, and
Collages.
