«Opus Pistorum» is Henry Miller's erotic novel, published by Quinteto in paperback (266 pages, in Spanish).
An unpublished work by Henry Miller that came to light in 1983, when a former Hollywood bookseller, Milton Luboviski, declared that he had commissioned it for a dollar a page. Set in Paris in the early forties, it narrates the erotic adventures of a probable alter ego of the author in his insistent search for the perfect woman and copulation.
Translation by Carlos Manzano; number 244 in the Quinteto collection. Published in September 2007.
For readers of Henry Miller and for those who enjoy twentieth-century erotic narrative.
Henry Valentine Miller was an American novelist, short story writer and essayist. He broke with existing literary forms and developed a new type of semi-autobiographical novel that blends character study, social criticism, philosophical reflection, stream of consciousness, explicit language, sex, surrealist free association, and mysticism. His most characteristic works of this kind are Tropic of Cancer, Black Spring, Tropic of Capricorn, and the trilogy The Rosy Crucifixion, which are based on his experiences in New York City and Paris, and all of which were banned in the United States until 1961. He also wrote travel memoirs and literary criticism and painted watercolors.
