Sexus: The Rosy Crucifixion I by
Henry Miller
Henry Miller Is The Best
First volume in the Rosy Crucifixion Series, originally published not by the
Olympia Press, but rather Editions du Chene, Girodias prior imprint (he
was forced out after financial difficulties). Sexus is among Millers most
diverting works, at times erudite, dull, erotic and tame, chronicling the
authors first wife, his final days in New York, his crushing failures, and his
many women.
Personal Review: Sexus: The Rosy Crucifixion I by Henry Miller
Truth...that's what this is more than anything. Sift through the gibberish and
the humor...and what is the most important and necessary extraction?
Truth...reality. I first heard of this book from the film Cape Fear. A great
book to read at any time in your life, but best before or during High School.
Living in a culture that is so obsessed with BS, this is one of the most
refreshingly real books I've read. And I give it 5 stars b/c I would read it
again. Gives the jobless and broke a reason to go on. Keep a dictionary

handy, unless you have a prodigious vocabulary. This book has
everything, from rants to skanks to trouble with human relations and
religion. On the other hand, this memoir-esque novel is quite surreal, and
makes me long to be young, single, and in NYC. One thing is for certain:
Miller did not hold back in gathering rosebuds, and probably gathered
some of yours too while he was at it. You can read this and see how
Miller's writing influenced Kerouac's. A vivid and exciting journey,
guaranteed to keep Vaseline in business as long as it is in print.
