Description and Table of Contents
Description
A biography, autobiography, criticism and sexual politics, celebrating the life and, in particular the work of Henry Miller. Best known for "Tropic of Cancer" and "Tropic of Capricorn", his torrid and marvellous evocations of the "vie de boheme" in Paris between the wars, Henry Miller appears the archetypal male American writer at large - outrageous, over-sexed, happier in France and Greece than in the Aglo-Saxon world. Branded as a sexist, he was at heart a romantic, a radical innocent abroad. He wrote Jong a fan letter on the publication of "Fear of Flying", and became her mentor and friend, considering her his alter ego in female form.
