Tropic of Capricorn
“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, New York Times bestselling author
""American literature today begins and ends with the meaning of what Miller has done."" - Lawrence Durrell

Banned in America for almost thirty years because of its explicit sexual content, this companion book to Miller's Tropic of Cancer is a semi-autobiographical novel that chronicles Miller's life in 1920s New York City. Famous for its frank portrayal of life in Brooklyn's neighborhoods and Miller's outrageous sexual exploits-from his teenage affair with a piano teacher twice his age to his tumultuous marriages-Tropic of Capricorn is now considered a cornerstone of modern literature. The audiobook is narrated by acclaimed actor Campbell Scott.
