Black Spring

by Henry Miller

Overview

Continuing the subversive self-revelation begun in Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, Henry Miller takes readers along a mad, free-associating journey from the damp grime of his Brooklyn youth to the sun-splashed cafes and squalid flats of Paris. With incomparable glee, Miller shifts effortlessly from Virgil to venereal disease, from Rabelais to Roquefort. In this seductive technicolor swirl of Paris and New York, he captures like no one else the blending of people and the cities they inhabit.

What People are Saying About This

Gerald Walker

Miller is subservsive -- quite possibly the most honorably, gloriously subservsive author who ever lived...he is lyrically reverent about a vision of life which simply includes more than conventional minds can bear.
