This companion volume to Miller's Tropic of Cancer, banned in America for almost thirty years because of its explicit sexual content, 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.
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
