The book explores the practice and ethics of close reading, a hallmark of the late scholar's work, through contributions from various authors. It culminates with a poignant piece by Jacques Derrida, who reflects on Miller's interpretations of Gerard Manley Hopkins, highlighting a significant dialogue between French philosophy and American literary analysis. This intersection not only honors Miller's legacy but also deepens the understanding of literary criticism's impact across cultures.
