In The World of Sex, Henry Miller, one of the most scandalous writers of the 20th century explains his literary project

Henry Miller's bold, explicit novels scandalized readers and remade the literature of his day. In this uncompromising literary manifesto he argues that sex is at the heart of his writing because it is at the heart of life - a vital force as essential as bread, money, work or play. Drawing on his own experiences and on the writing of his famously banned novels in Paris, he shows sex as a mysterious realm that must be explored if we are to be truly free.

"Para viver, devemos não só estar despertos, mas ser despertados. Se estivéssemos realmente acordados, ficaríamos chocados com o horror da vida cotidiana. Ninguém em posse das suas faculdades mentais seria capaz de fazer as coisas que exigem de nós a todo momento do dia. Somos todos vítimas, quer no topo, na base ou no meio. Não há escape, nem imunidade."
