Description: Vintage hardcover edition of Tropic of Cancer, by Henry Miller (Grove Press, 1961; 3rd printing). Miller's biographical novel is one of the most notorious books of the 20th century. Originally published in 1934 in France, the book's publication was banned in the U.S. due to obscenity charges. It was only published in the U.S. in 1961 (in this edition), and its publication resulted in a landmark ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court, which changed American publishers' standard toward obscenity (and pornography) irrevocably. This book is in good condition overall, with moderate wear to the dust jacket, including one tear (1") near the top of the back cover. Otherwise, no rips, tears, marks, or other major signs of wear.
