He recalls Mona, who sounds like she's the only woman he has ever loved, although he clearly has a thing for Tania as well. He has sex with all manner of women, most of whom remain nameless and pretty much faceless. Besides finding a roof to put over his head, he's basically just interested in writing and having sex with prostitutes, which is weird because he's broke. Tropic of Cancer opens with Henry living at the Villa Borghese with Boris, his louse-ridden but generous friend. A plot summary of this novel is no simple task, but here's our stab at it: The novel-or song-tells the story of roughly one year of Miller's life in Paris (and, briefly, Dijon) as he struggles to come to terms with himself as a writer. He calls it a "song," which it pretty much is-a song straight from his twisted psyche that hasn't quite been through the production phase. He's definitely not about to present a clear, chronological novel.

Tropic of Cancer is now considered, as Norman Mailer said, “one of the ten or twenty great novels of our century.” Only a historic court ruling that changed American censorship standards, ushering in a new era of freedom and 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. 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.
