«Tròpic de Capricorn» is the novel by Henry Miller, published by Ayma in 1978 (322 pages, in Catalan).
In Tròpic de Capricorn, Henry Miller immerses himself in his personal experiences with direct and explicit language. Sexuality, poverty and the search for meaning articulate a deliberately unconventional narrative, extending the exploration begun in Tropic of Cancer.
Novel originally published in 1939 and considered a sequel to Tropic of Cancer. Catalan translation by Jordi Arbonès.
Will appeal to readers of 20th-century American autobiographical fiction who do not shy away from explicit language.
Henry Valentine Miller was an American novelist, short story writer and essayist. He broke with existing literary forms and developed a new type of semi-autobiographical novel that blends character study, social criticism, philosophical reflection, stream of consciousness, explicit language, sex, surrealist free association, and mysticism. His most characteristic works of this kind are Tropic of Cancer, Black Spring, Tropic of Capricorn, and the trilogy The Rosy Crucifixion, which are based on his experiences in New York City and Paris, and all of which were banned in the United States until 1961. He also wrote travel memoirs and literary criticism and painted watercolors.
