Tropic of Cancer – Henry Miller

was for 196. Finished after the fact on 5.16.07. Lovely passages of language, real sense of newness. “whitman among the corpses”. makes me want to read all of whitman. ugly side of france, can’t stop being american. Barely fiction.

Winner of “most awkward stare for reading material on the Metro”, because people only know it from that “Seinfeld” episode.
