Sinossi
In The World of Sex, Henry Miller, one of the most scandalous writers of the 20th century explains his literary project
Henry Miller's bold, explicit novels scandalized readers and remade the literature of his day. In this uncompromising literary manifesto he argues that sex is at the heart of his writing because it is at the heart of life - a vital force as essential as bread, money, work or play. Drawing on his own experiences and on the writing of his famously banned novels in Paris, he shows sex as a mysterious realm that must be explored if we are to be truly free.

L'autore
Henry Miller (1891-1980) is one of the most important American writers of the 20th century. His best-known novels include Tropic of Cancer (1934), Tropic of Capricorn (1939), and the Rosy Crucifixion trilogy (Sexus, 1949, Plexus, 1953, and Nexus, 1959), all published in France and banned in the US and the UK until 1964. He is widely recognised as an irreverent, risk-taking writer who redefined the novel and made the link between the European avant-garde and the American Beat generation.

Da: Grand Eagle Retail, Wilmington, DE, U.S.A.
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. One of the most scandalous writers of the 20th century explains his literary projectThe World of Sex is Henry Miller's most important essay, the manifesto in which he explains why sex matters and why he wrote his famously banned novels, Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn. Seeking to set the record straight, Miller argues that there is no contradiction between his salacious prose and his philosophy. In the kind of raw language his readers know so well, he narrates his escapades and formulates his philosophical conclusions. Sexuality for Miller is a mysterious realm - exploring it is what leads to self-liberation and self-realisation. A title, in which the author argues that sex is at the heart of his writing because it is at the heart of life - a vital force as essential as bread, money, work or play. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9780141399157
