About this title

Synopsis

Presents the original 1934 text, which was banned in the United States until 1961, and follows the author's often scathing prose, punctuated with graphic sexual observations, in which he criticizes moral hypocrisy and conformist behaviors. Original.

Review

‘A ranting, randy book carried along by a deep, sensual enjoyment of living.’ Sunday Times

‘Tropic of Cancer is a great prophetic book, a warning of what deadens life, an affirmation that it can yet be lived in an age whose sterile non-cultures seek to thwart all mainsprings of fertility. Miller reveals himself as a battered faun, a crafty innocent, a lonely, lazy, sometimes fearful, always steadfast, worshipper of life’ Spectator
