Black Spring by Henry Miller
An evocation of Miller's early life in New York, this novel recalls his Brooklyn childhood, his job in his father's tailor shop and his searing reflections on his native land and his later self-imposed exile in Paris. The author also wrote "Tropic of Cancer" and "Tropic of Capricorn".Henry Miller was born in Brooklyn, New York. He had a variety of jobs as a young man, including several years working for the Western Union Telegraph Company. During this time, encouraged by June Mansfield Smith, the second of his five wives, Miller began to write. Aside from articles, stories for pulp magazines and prose poems, Miller worked on his first novels ‘Crazy Cock’ and ‘Moloch’, and on the copious notes which would eventually transmute into the notorious ‘Tropics’ books.
