About this product

Product Information

Banned in America for almost thirty years because of its explicit sexual content, this companion volume to Miller's Tropic of Cancer chronicles his life in 1920s New York City. Famous for its frank portrayal of life in Brooklyn's ethnic neighborhoods and Miller's outrageous sexual exploits, The Tropic of Capricorn is now considered a cornerstone of modern literature.

Reviews
"A superb entertainment that brings in jeremiads, casual lyrics, and sudden reaches toward the spiritual core of life."-The New York Times Book Review "American literature today begins and ends with the meaning of what Miller has done."-Lawrence Durrell "Miller has once and for all blasted away the very foundation of human hypocrisy-moral, social, and political. . . . The grandest passages are the scenes of lovemaking. They join in a grand paean to all that is still joyous, healthy, happy, and affirmative."-The Nation "The most enthralling and hilarious explosions are the sexual ones."-Newsweek "There is nothing like Miller when he gets rolling. . . . One has to take the language back to Marlowe and Shakespeare before encountering a wealth of imagery equal in intensity."-Norman Mailer "There is an eager vitality and exuberance to the writing . . . we watchfully hear the language skip, whoop and wheel across Miller's pages."-William H.

  • Forget Tropic of Cancer.....this is his masterpiece.

    This is his best book, even better than Black Spring or the Rosy Crucifixion Trilogy. You are in the hands of a master, and you feel it with every sentence he issues forth.
