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.

Pressestimmen

"There is nothing like Henry 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. Gass
"The most enthralling and hilarious explosions are the sexual ones." --"Newsweek"
"A superb entertainment that brings in jeremiads, casual lyrics, and sudden reaches toward the spiritual core of life . . ." --"The New York Times Book Review"
"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"
"American literature today begins and ends with the meaning of what Miller has done." -Lawrence Durell
