Zwrotnik Raka
ISBN: 9788365613233 / Polski / Twarda z obwolutą / 2017 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Zwrotnik Raka jest debiutem autora, osiadłego z początkiem lat trzydziestych w Paryżu; tam też w 1934 roku książka została opublikowana nakładem ekskluzywnego angielskiego wydawcy. Utwór entuzjastycznie powitały takie znakomitości, jak Ezra Pound i T.S. Eliot, rozgłos jednak przyniósł mu dopiero wprowadzony w 1937 roku zakaz wwożenia do USA „gorszącej” książki. Atmosfera skandalu przygłuszyła bardzo wysublimowaną w istocie wartość artystyczną tej powieści. Jak i całego cyklu, który tworzy wraz z Czarną wiosną i Zwrotnikiem Koziorożca. Piętnaście epizodów z...

Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus Bosch
ISBN: 9780811201070 / Angielski / Miękka / 1957 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Big Sur is the portrait of a place one of the most colorful in the U.S. and of the extraordinary people Miller knew there: writers (& writers who didn't write), mystics seeking truth in meditation (& the not-so-saintly looking for sex-cults or celebrity), sophisticated children & adult innocents; geniuses, cranks & the unclassifiable. Henry Miller writes with a buoyancy & brimming energy that are infectious. He has a fine touch for comedy. But this is also a serious book the testament of a free spirit who has broken through the restraints & cliches of modern life to find within...

Tropic of Cancer
ISBN: 9780802131782 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Now hailed as an American classic, Tropic of Cancer, Henry Miller's masterpiece, was banned as obscene in this country for twenty-seven years after its first publication in Paris in 1934. Only a historic court ruling that changed American censorship standards, ushering in a new era of freedom and frankness in modern literature, permitted the publication of this first volume of Miller's famed mixture of memoir and fiction, which chronicles with unapologetic gusto the bawdy adventures of a young expatriate writer, his friends, and the characters they meet in Paris in the 1930s. Tropic...

Crazy Cock
ISBN: 9780802132932 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In 1930 Henry Miller moved from New York to Paris, leaving behind at least temporarily his tempestuous marriage to June Smith and a novel that had sprung from his anguish over her love affair with a mysterious woman named Jean Kronski. Begun in 1927, Crazy Cock is the story of Tony Bring, a struggling writer whose bourgeois inclinations collide with the disordered bohemianism of his much-beloved wife, Hildred, particularly when her lover, Vanya, comes to live with them in their already cramped Greenwich Village apartment. In a world swirling with violence, sex, and passion, the three struggle...

The Wisdom of the Heart
ISBN: 9780811222174 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this selection of stories and essays, Henry Miller elucidates, revels, and soars, showing his command over a wide range of moods, styles, and subject matters. Writing from the heart, always with a refreshing lack of reticence, Miller involves the reader directly in his thoughts and feelings. His real aim, Karl Shapiro has written, is to find the living core of our world whenever it survives and in whatever manifestation, in art, in literature, in human behavior itself. It is then that he sings, praises, and shouts at the top of his lungs with the uncontainable hilarity he is famous for....
