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 freedomand 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. / Sada hvaljen kao američki klasik, `Tropik raka`, remek-delo Henrija Milera, zabranjen je u ovoj zemlji dvadeset sedam godina nakon prvog objavljivanja u Parizu 1934. Samo istorijska sudska presuda koja je promenila američke standarde cenzure, uvela u novoj eri slobode i iskrenosti u modernoj književnosti, omogućilo je objavljivanje ovog prvog toma Milerove čuvene mešavine memoara i fikcije, koji sa neoprostivim užitkom beleži razvratne avanture mladog pisca iz inostranstva, njegovih prijatelja i likova koje susreću u Pariz 1930-ih godina.
