Sexus by Henry Miller

Henry Miller's monumental venture in self-revelation was begun with his Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, which on their American publication were hailed as miraculous, superb, ribald, brilliant, and shamelessly shocking. Sexus is the first volume of a series called The Rosy Crucifixion, in which Miller completes his major life work. It was written in the United States during World War I, and first published in Paris in 1949. Of this remarkable project, Lawrence Durrell has said: The completion of his seven-volume autobiography, if it fulfills the promise of what he has already given us, will put his name amongst the three or four great figures of the age.

Henry Valentine Miller was born in New York City in 1891 and lived in Brooklyn, Paris, and Big Sur, California for the majority of his life. Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, the Rosy Crucifixion trilogy (Sexus, Plexus, and Nexus), Black Spring, and Crazy Cock are only a few of his works. In 1980, he passed away.
