3.0 out of 5 stars not the best in the trilogy, Oct 8 2002
By S. Bell (Tallahassee, FL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I thought sexus was really funny and wild hearted, and this next book isn't really either. Plexus has hundreds of pages of Miller telling boring stories and long winded opinions and outdated analysis of the world and all that, and basically this huge book should have been about 200 pages instead of 600. Most of the time I kept thinking "Okay, Henry...stop telling old man stories and get back to the damn storyline in the book!"

5.0 out of 5 stars not for everyone, Feb 10 2000
By Scott A. Herbst (Reno, Nevada United States) - See all my reviews
This book (this whole trilogy) is not for everyone. Before anyone considers reading this, they should first check "Tropic of Cancer" - probably twice. Once done, consider picking this up. Only pick it up if you loved "Tropic." Personally, I found the trilogy a lot harder to digest and a lot slower going. Conversely, I found it times more rewarding. If you feel like you have something to offer the world that has yet to be realized, this is the book for you. It will give you hope. In his darkest moment, Miller is able to funnel all of his sadness, rage, pain, heartbreak, etc., and somehow smile through it. For the dissatisfied soul, trudging through these tomes is like finding a friend you never dreamed of. If you're happy with the way things are and life is satisfying - god bless you. Keep doing whatever you are and find some other book to read. There are thousands out there that you will get more out of. If you feel stuck, however, these books should give you courage. Read them and act on them. As Miller will show you, there is nothing to lose, and we all have it in us.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Coming of Age Masterpiece for Artists, Dec 28 1999
Miller represents the torment of many aspiring artists and writers: his insight into the human soul as he sees it and his ability to craft words to illuminate this insight are remarkable. Yet in spite of this mastery, he still writes with a profound sense of humility and suffers in his own miserable imperfections. He is hopelessly in love with a woman he knows is a liar and a cheat; he assails his own failure to provide for himself in a dignified way; he struggles with the validity of his personal friendships. In the midst of all this anxiety swirling within the deep intellect is a sincere and almost childlike love of life and decadence which he refused to deny himself even in the most impoverished times.

The final pages of Plexus define for the reader what is meant by "The Rosy Crucifixion." (If they haven't already figured it out by then.) To relate to the message is the key to the trilogy. If it moves you to tears, consider throwing away your own cosmococcic baggage and start off to something of a higher order of blissful, ecstatic and painful life.

5.0 out of 5 stars oh my God!
There are few words which can descibe Henry Miller's writing. The first one which comes to mind is depravity and then genius. He is the angriest man who ever wrote a book. Read more
