'''Henry Miller''' (1891–1980) was an American [[writer]] and watercolors [[painter]]. His parents were from Germany. ''The Colossus of Maroussi'' (1941), a travel book of [[Greece]], is considered his best work. Other writings include: ''Tropic of Cancer'' (1934) (adventures in Paris), ''Black Spring'' (1936) (his early Brooklyn years), ''Tropic of Capricorn'' (1939), and the ''Rosy Crucifixion Trilogy'': ''Sexus'' (1949), ''Plexus'' (1953), and ''Nexus'' (1960).
<blockquote>
Henry Miller sought to reestablish the freedom to live without the conventional restraints of civilization. His books are potpourris of sexual description, quasi-philosophical speculation, reflection on [[literature]] and society, surrealistic imaginings, and autobiographical incident.
