Tropic of Cancer

by Henry Miller, Anaïs Nin
₱737.55
Tropic of Cancer
Tropic of Cancer

Bold, explicit, and unapologetic account of Parisian adventures.

Tropic of Cancer could be a good read for those who appreciate literature that pushes the boundaries of societal norms. Miller's bold and unapologetic account of his Parisian adventures is not for the faint-hearted. The book's most unique feature is its frank and explicit prose, which sets it apart from many other novels of its time. However, it is also a work of great literary merit, and its influence on modern literature is undeniable.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Now hailed as an American classic, Henry Miller’s masterpiece chronicles with unapologetic gusto the bawdy adventures of a young expatriate writer, his friends, and the characters they meet in Paris in the 1930s. Tropic of Cancer is now considered, as Norman Mailer said, "one of the ten or twenty great novels of our century."
