Crazy Cock by Henry Miller
Set in the colourful world of Greenwich Village in the 1920s, this semi-autobiographical novel follows the story of Tony Bring, a struggling writer whose bourgeois upbringing and inclinations collide with the disordered bohemianism of his beloved wife, Hildred.Henry Miller was born in Brooklyn, New York. He had a variety of jobs as a young man, including several years working for the Western Union Telegraph Company. During this time, encouraged by June Mansfield Smith, the second of his five wives, Miller began to write. Aside from articles, stories for pulp magazines and prose poems, Miller worked on his first novels ‘Crazy Cock’ and ‘Moloch’, and on the copious notes which would eventually transmute into the notorious ‘Tropics’ books.
