Inscribed Program signed: "This copy for/L. G. Hellstrom/of
Solna/with warm greetings/Henry Miller/Big Sur, Calif./4-21-50", 24p,
8¼x10½. Program for Exhibition of oil paintings by Bezalel Schatz at the San
Francisco Museum of Art, August 16-September 11, 1949. Foreword by Henry Miller.
Signed on inside of back cover. American author Henry Miller (1891-1980) is
best known for his controversial 1934 novel, Tropic of Cancer,
which along with Tropic of Capricorn, chronicled Miller's life as an
expatriate in Paris (1930-1939). First published in France, the works resulted
in a 30-year censorship debate in the U.S., which Miller finally won.
While in Paris, Miller, the author of more than 36 works, became involved
with married author Anais Nin. Ironically, it was Nin, not Miller who
documented their romance, which inspired the 1992 film, Henry and June
(June Edith Smith Mansfield, a former taxi driver and the second of Miller's
five wives, who also had an affair with Nin). Lightly creased and soiled.
Otherwise, fine condition.
